Trees
These is one of the natural tracks signs used in identifying a Location. If you're used to a particular place, you can tell you're in a particular Location by a particular tree.Car tyre Trails
This is another natural Track Sign that can be used to recognize a place easily. For instance if you're pointing out directions to someone, you can tell the person to stop where he sees a Car tyre Trail.Cut Tree Trunk
These is another natural Track Sign you can use to identify a location. I can still remember missing my way when I traveled to the Village for Christmas holiday. What helped me to remember my way was a chopped tree trunk I saw when I was coming initially and it helped me to find my way. These things really helps.

So I started the Track from my home. According to the Teacher we were asked to use the "#" sign to signify the start of the track which I used four sticks to illustrate. After I walked for about 3 minutes, I turned the left side and I used the "cross left" sign to illustrate it. I used a ❌ sign to illustrate the wrong way on the right side and forward to show the right way. I turned left again and I used the "cross left" sign to indicate it. I continued moving until and I reached a T- junction. I placed an ❌ on the left side because it was the wrong way and a "forward sign" on the right way because it was the right way. I trekked for 2 minutes and made a turn. Again I used the "forward sign" to illustrate the way I took. I kept on trekking on the straight road until I got to a straight and left turn. I placed the "cross left sign" to show that I took left and ❌on the straight road. The Pizza point was on the Left that I took and I placed the "end of the track sign.
| What did you think of this week's homework? Did you know you could leave clues in a very simple way? Was this course easy for you to complete? What was the most difficult part, and what did you learn? |

Honestly I didn't know I could leave clues in simple ways like this. I have heard about this In moonlight stories where a person was able to trace a pathway because of Track Signs but I didn't know it was possible until this class.
Honestly I found this week's task interesting and challenging. Interesting because I got to learn a new thing. Challenging because I stay in the city and it was difficult finding some of the natural Track Sign. But I glad I learnt about the Track Sign.
Thanks for reading through my post, I invite @chilaw, @aspiya and @ukpono to participate in this contest.
