Steps

Kia ora bloggers, in Te Ngahere we are measuring our steps. The reason we are doing this is because Whaea Becks and Whaea Chrissy have ordered pedometers, (things which count how many steps you’ve taken). With the pedometers we’re going to add all our steps together after one day. With all our steps added together we’re going to see if we could walk the distance of New Zealand.

First we had to measure how long our steps were (mine are 80 cm). Afterwards we had to estimate how many steps it would take us to walk 10 metres. My estimation was 12 and a half steps. When we had estimated how many steps it would take us we had to measure something outside. My group and I measured te Whare Kai which is 10.31 metres long on the length of te Whare Kai. Once we had finished measuring the Whare Kai. We took turns walking the part we measured; it took me 16 steps to walk the part we measured. Now we’ve finished making a digital poster. On the poster we had to take a photo of what we measured and put a bit of a summary in it.

Everything that we’ve been doing so far I’ve enjoyed. Something I could do better next time is take a better photo of the Whare Kai.
