Marathon

Description

How far do you think you could run without stopping? A lot of runners have run a marathon, which is 26.2 miles! That's a lot of running! Create a path for indi using as many color tiles that you possibly can and watch indi run its very own half-marathon.

Objectives

• I can iterate on my path to include as many color tiles as possible.

• I can collaborate with other groups and combine ideas.

Details

Preparation

• You will want an open space for all groups to work in. An empty hallway or gym is ideal. If not possible, students can use the classroom furniture as obstacles to guide indi around, under, or through.

• Have the color cards available for groups that want to extend their marathon courses.
