This resource was really awesome. We were able to tie it in with our health and fitness programme as well as our statistics unit. Unfortunately we did not quite get to finish it all (such a busy term at our school!!) the kids tried their best and enjoyed seeing how far we could get. They are such a competitive bunch. I think that if it were to come out again we would forget about asking for help from the community as this was a struggle and just focus on seeing how far we can get, come up with a goal and plan. Perhaps make it a competition with another class. It was cool to have the kids out in nature and in the fresh air.

This was an amazing school kit with lots of rich learning opportunities. Kauri 1 really enjoyed working on this kit and did lots of awesome maths. Unfortunately we did not have time to complete this kit fully due to other school commitments. We will continue this in 2021

In what ways did this kit encourage your class to engage in community collaboration? They had to think about how to effectively coordinate across the school. The teachers took a minimal role in the organisation.
We want to collate the huge number of steps from accross NZ, please share your final number with us. 515,246 steps. This was done during our lunchtime. We have a short lunchtime so we aimed to hit a concrete number within 30 minutes (plus or minus 5-10 minutes for organisation).

Excellent kit. Great for maths classes and social studies. We used it with the mainstream class and the extension class and they both loved the challenge.

In what ways did this kit encourage your class to engage in community collaboration? Panui were sent home and some whanau had their extended whanau help out.

Tena te Roopu of School Kits. Nga mihi nui! This was a great initiative to get our tamariki and some whanau out of the classroom and school and participate in activity that they would not normally do. The added incentive of counting our steps was very effective.

Kia ora koutou. We used this as a whole running exercise across the school. We have a track at the school and ran that and worked out the maths to work out the steps. Lots of maths involved and by bringing in competition between classes we got more involvement. We had to adapt this so we could work in in with other plans in the school hence using the full school. Thanks for making an awesome resource.

In what ways did this kit encourage your class to engage in community collaboration? Loads of ways. We were already doing cross country training around our local community which also helped with our step intake each day! Students were actively engaged with whanau and also encouraging them to join in!
