The students at Linden SDA want to improve the environment they workout and play in. Mr. Lee and Coach Laps brought their students to the gym where they participated in a survey of the gym space. Students broke into groups and designated one person as the measurer. This designated individual took steps heel to toe across the length and width of the gym. Their feet were then measured in inches. The students converted their measurements into feet. The gym was then measured with a tape measure for an official measurement. This exercise allowed the students to get a preliminary outline of a floor plan.
This data will be shared with Ms. Semple and Ms. V for their use in influencing changes in an attempt to improve and modernize the playspace. The team with the best estimate wins the challenge. At the moment results are being tallied. Stay tuned for the results.
