    1. Ask students to recall the symbols used in "Happy Maps."
    2. What happens when the "North" arrow button is clicked? What happens when the "East" arrow button is clicked? What would happen if we made a mistake when doing directions movements? What if there was a "bug" in our program?
    3. Encourage students to think about the debugging tips, Was everything right at the first step? How about the second? Where did it go wrong?
    4. Our main duty is to make the students observe and understand the directions to be used to reach the destination.
    5. Teachers can initially explain about the exercise and about directions to students so that when the students try the exercise, they would find it easy.
