Look up!

Here's a sky map: http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2...ymap_north.gif

See if you can find Orion's belt as a reference point. It's 3 stars in a row. If you turn toward Orion's belt you should see meteors higher in the sky and toward your left. Once you see your first meteor you should have no problem seeing the others.
