Requirement 1

Under the guidance of an adult staff member, teach the Knot Tying Honor.



EXPLORERS need to earn the Knot Tying Honor, while FRIENDS and COMPANIONS need to learn 10 and 20 knots respectively. Have fun helping the younger Pathfinders learn their knots. See the Knot Tying Honor for the requirements, answers and teaching tips.

The Knot Tying honor can be easily taught by a group by assigning each instructor a single knot to teach and then setting up a station for each of them. Two instructors can share a table and a hot melt glue gun (useful for attaching the knots to a knot board). It is best to cut the ropes to length before the Knot Tying session begins, as doing so during the session takes valuable teaching time away from the students. Rotate the stations in an orderly fashion rather than allowing the Pathfinders to rotate themselves - otherwise, you will find that some teachers end up with too many students at once, while other teachers have no students at all. It is best to instruct the Pathfinders to remain at their assigned station until the rotation is announced. Allow five to ten minutes per rotation.
