How Long Does It Take to Walk 1 km?

This morning the two Grade 3 classes gathered to ponder this question...


After the students had brainstormed some predictions, we set out on our one kilometre adventure. I have an app on my phone that tracks distance and time.

Recovering in the soft snow!


Consolidating our learning with Mrs. Frangione in our outdoor classroom.

It took us about 15 minutes to walk 1 kilometre. We started our walk in the primary yard. We then did two laps of the soccer field and then walked down the path next to the primary yard. We discussed how we can use this information to estimate how much time it will take us to walk to the Greenboro Library next week. More information about this outing will be sent home tomorrow!
