Navigation instruments have changed over time. Lodestones, sunstones, and sextants helped early navigators find their way. Modern technology makes navigation more precise than it has ever been. But the roots of navigation still remain. Created in collaboration with the Smithsonian Institution, this Smithsonian Informational Text builds students' reading skills while engaging their curiosity about STEAM topics through real-world examples. It features a hands-on STEAM challenge that guides students through every step of the engineering design process and is perfect for makerspace activities. It makes STEAM career connections by providing a glimpse into the lives of real-life Smithsonian employees currently working in STEAM fields. Discover engineering innovations that solve real-world problems with this book that touches on all aspects of STEAM: Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Math!

It
was
one
of
the
first
ways
people
learned
to
navigate
.

They
followed
the
stars
both
on
sea
and
on
land
.

They
used
stars
to
position
themselves
.

Then
,
they
could
figure
out
where
they
needed
to
go
.


Instruments
have
changed
over
time
.

It
is
more
precise
than
it
has
ever
been
.

But
the
roots
of
navigation
remain
.

ways
,
we
still
follow
the
stars
