Mapping and Maths

Mrs Cameron is getting a cast put on her leg for 6 weeks so her achilles tendon can heal.  ACC will provide some assistance by way of a taxi.

Use Google Maps to plan the weekly travel.

How many kilometers will Mrs Cameron need the taxi travel in a school week?

Day	Time	Kilometres
Monday	8am - Waikanae School	5.6km
	5pm - Home	5.6km
Tuesday	8am - Waikanae School	5.6km
	Husband can pick up and do the touch rugby run
Wednesday	8am - Waikanae School	5.6km
	4pm - Waikanae School to Maclean St	10.8km
	5.30pm Maclean Street to Home	15.1km
Thursday	8am - Waikanae School	5.6km
	Husband can pick up and do the touch rugby run
Friday	8am - Waikanae School	5.6km
	4pm - Home	5.6km
	TOTAL	65.1km
	x 6 weeks	390.60 kms!!!!

      

Now pretend you were in the same situation and you needed a taxi to drive you to all the places you go through the week.  Create a google doc and display your information like Mrs Cameron’s.  You will need to ‘Move to Folder’ MATHS and it will automatically be shared with me.

Use google maps.

Add the total km’s.

When you are done, I’m sure you’ll remember to say thank you to whoever transports you to school and activities :)
