Angles as turns

Built for a nurture group. An arm turns about a point: quarter, half, three quarter and full turns, clockwise and anticlockwise, on a dial marked North, East, South and West. Then each turn is compared with a corner of folded paper and named acute, right angle, obtuse or reflex. No protractor.
