I am going to start using pedometers in my class this year and was wondering if anyone had a great website to inexpensive pedometers that work well so I can purchase.
We use pedometers at an elementary school for grades 3-5 and we love them it really gets the kids moving. Yes, they do like to shake them for steps, but we have the rule you shakem'we takem' and we really follow through on this( they get a 0 for the day) and the shaking will stop. We bought the walk 4 life pedometers and they worked well, but a little expensive.They started to break after 4 years and we bought Acusplit pedometers and they work break easier, but we did get a 5 year warranty and they replace them at no cost. Don't buy real cheap ones they won't last.
I have also been looking in to using pedometers in my class and I found a website that has several different options and price ranges. I’m really not sure of the quality, but they offer several types.
