While we never quite made the whole walk we had fun adding up the steps and even had our learners running around adding to our tally

In what ways did this kit encourage your class to engage in community collaboration? The students could see their progress on the charts as the steps came in. The rewards was really good. The lesson on measurement was an awesome resource. Due to this programme the whole school got into a weight loss challenge.

All year 6 students with their whanau and the Teachers and their whanau were involved. Each student had to find at least 4/5 other people who could walk on the chosen day 25 September 2020.

The concept was excellent and the discussion was great amongst the kids. Those who who already had a step counter were less interested in an alternative way of recording/calculating steps. With so many short weeks for a variety of reasons, it was difficult to keep the momentum up for those who didn't have a counter, as they were not motivated to devise another process other than the process we devised for counting the number of steps assigned to a designated area at school. Overall, I believe the 28 students were more active.

Fantastic learning opportunities for students to track our foots steps and understand distances in steps, meters and km's travelled. We invited the whole school to also be measured during our cross country and whole school Athletics day.

I had no problem with the resources that were supplied or the intention behind the kit, in fact, I thought that both were quite good. The quantity of the work that was required was on the lengthy side and for my children who'd just come out of another lockdown, it just wasn't fitting their needs. I attempted to adapt the work to make something meaningful for my more able students but this just wasn't grabbing their attention at this point. I have to reiterate that this wasn't a reflection of the resources or the learning experience, more of the year that we're having.

Our students enjoyed this resource, and although we're only half way through it, they loved seeing the different lengths of their steps, to counting steps to the end of the court, field, gate etc.

The students really enjoyed the challenge. They loved being active, discussing the mathematical aspects, and communicating with others.
