Planet Pumpkin Ambassadors from Orange World

Last week we did an activity called planet pumpkin. In Planet Pumpkin you had to devise a system to find where the ambassadors from Orange World had landed so you could tell your people where the space ship had landed. When the spaceship landed you had to use your system to tell your people where the spaceship landed as quickly as possible. You had to make your system as easy to use as you could so it was not too hard to find the spaceship.

Our group used coordinates,an equator and compass points to find where the space ship had landed. We think that it landed in the Northern Hemisphere, East South East and the coordinates were 21,3. I think that it was easier than I expected but it was hard to determine exactly where the space ship with the ambassadors from Orange World had landed.
