STEP TRACKER

Setup/Equipment:

App or device with pedometer to track steps

Objective: Students will be able to assess the number of steps they get in a certain time or distance

Activity:

• Go on a walk/jog around your neighborhood or a trail with your pedometer

• This walk should be done with a parent or small group (even bring your dog!)

• The distance traveled is up to you but the walk/jog should be at least 15 minutes long

• If possible, take a picture on your walk and your pedometer results and post on twitter tagging @AbbottPhysEd or e-mail to Mr. Williams!

Modifications:

• Could complete this activity inside if needed or outside in the yard

• If you do not have a pedometer, you can track the distance walked using Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/dir///@41.2918589,-96.2213242,11z/data=!4m2!4m1!3e2
