We used our foot lengths to measure the diameter of the circle then we x Pi with the diameter. The circle we used was the big circle on the middle of the basketball court. It took me thirteen and a half footsteps to travel from one half of the circle to the other. After I had found the amount of footsteps I needed, Then I remembered that... It took 5 footsteps to travel a meter ( heel to toe). So I did.. 5 into 13.5 was 2 +R 2.5
Then when I x 13.5 with 3.14 equaled 42.39.
These are the photos of us doing it . . .
