While walking watch what happens to the speed AND the distance. –If the distance grows you are “cold” or are going too far from the popsicle stick you will retrieve. If the distance shrinks you are getting “hotter” so continue until you get to within a few feet of the markers. The GPS will not take you directly to the markers (these GPSs aren’t super powerful or technical but you will get very close so keep your eyes open!) – You may pick up one marker. Repeat steps 3-7 for PO1002 to retrieve your second marker. Power the GPS down. Press the button on side, upper right. Return to your starting point to show your teacher the markers you and your partner collected.
