Readers connect numbers to everyday references such as room ceiling height, building height, and sports-measurement ideas. Through questions and imaginative comparisons, the text encourages estimating what objects might match 10 metres and 100 metres, while also noting that the final step is uncertain, making curiosity and exploration the focus.","How Far is Far?  \nAuthor: Sukanya Sinha  \nIllustrator: Vishnu M Nair  \nEnglish Story Book  \nHow Far is Far?  \nAuthor: Sukanya Sinha Illustrator: Vishnu M Nair Reformatted for Bloom By: Cara Ediger Pratham Books  \nEnglish  \nHow Far is Far?  \nAuthor: Sukanya Sinha  \nIllustrator: Vishnu M Nair  \nCopyright © 2016, Pratham Books  \nYou are free to make commercial use of this work.

In this ladder, the distance between the rungs gets bigger and BIGGER and BIGGER as you climb up the steps, growing 10 times at each step. Sometimes we will climb one step at a time and at other times we will skip many steps at one go.  \nThe funny thing is that we are not even sure which the last step is or whether the steps go on forever. Let the exciting journey begin!  \nStep 0: 1 metre  \nWhat do a five year old boy, a cricket bat and a newborn baby elephant have in common?  \nAll of them have a height of about 1 metre (or 1m for short)!  \nIt would be awkward to say that the ceiling of a room is 3 baby elephants high. So we make the sensible choice of saying that the height of the ceiling is 3 metres.  \nStep 1: 10 metres  \nNow that you have a feel for the size of one metre, we are ready to climb to the next step of our ladder, at 10 metres. A three storey building or a mango tree is roughly 10 metres high. A cricket pitch is about twice that length.  \nCan you think of other objects that are about 10 m long or high?  \nStep 2: 100 metres  \nHave you noticed that with every step we add a zero to the right of the number we had before and the step number matches the number of zeroes? Keep track of that as we climb along.  \nIf you have run the 100m race on school sports day, or watched sprinters do it on TV, you know exactly how far that is. Now imagine if the 100m track stood up! That would be about the height of two Gol Gumbaz*-es.  \n*The Gol Gumbaz in Bijapur, Karnataka, is the tomb of Mohammed Adil Shah. When it was built in 1656, it had the largest dome in the world. It held the record until 1881!","cbCainNqxyMBiz4s","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainNqxyMBiz4s","pdf",33980416,21,"English","en",105,"# How Far is Far?\n## Step 0: 1 metre\n## Step 1: 10 metres\n## Step 2: 100 metres","[{\"question\":\"What does Step 0 measure in the ladder?\",\"answer\":\"Step 0 is 1 metre, used to help readers grasp a basic unit of length.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the story build understanding of 10 metres?\",\"answer\":\"It compares 10 metres with real-world items like the height of a three-storey building and asks readers to think of other objects around 10 m long or high.\"},{\"question\":\"What change happens when the story reaches Step 2 (100 metres)?\",\"answer\":\"Each step adds a zero to the previous number, and the story links 100 metres to a familiar 100 m race, then extends the imagination with a large-structure comparison.\"}]","How Far is Far? - English Story Ladder of Distance | PDF",1784286574,32,{"code":4,"msg":30,"data":31},"ok",{"site_id":23,"language":22,"slug":32,"title":13,"keywords":33,"description":14,"schema_data":34,"social_meta":85,"head_meta":87,"extra_data":89,"updated_unix":27},"how-far-is-far-english-story-ladder-of-distance","",{"@graph":35,"@context":84},[36,53,67],{"@type":37,"itemListElement":38},"BreadcrumbList",[39,43,47,50],{"item":40,"name":41,"@type":42,"position":11},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":44,"name":45,"@type":42,"position":46},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":48,"name":12,"@type":42,"position":49},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/story-novel/",3,{"item":51,"name":13,"@type":42,"position":52},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/how-far-is-far-english-story-ladder-of-distance/89642/",4,{"url":51,"name":13,"@type":54,"author":55,"headline":13,"publisher":57,"fileFormat":60,"inLanguage":22,"description":14,"dateModified":61,"datePublished":61,"encodingFormat":60,"isAccessibleForFree":62,"interactionStatistic":63},"DigitalDocument",{"name":9,"@type":56},"Person",{"url":40,"name":58,"@type":59},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-07-17",true,{"@type":64,"interactionType":65,"userInteractionCount":4},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":66},"ViewAction",{"@type":68,"mainEntity":69},"FAQPage",[70,76,80],{"name":71,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":73},"What does Step 0 measure in the ladder?","Question",{"text":74,"@type":75},"Step 0 is 1 metre, used to help readers grasp a basic unit of length.","Answer",{"name":77,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":78},"How does the story build understanding of 10 metres?",{"text":79,"@type":75},"It compares 10 metres with real-world items like the height of a three-storey building and asks readers to think of other objects around 10 m long or high.",{"name":81,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":82},"What change happens when the story reaches Step 2 (100 metres)?",{"text":83,"@type":75},"Each step adds a zero to the previous number, and the story links 100 metres to a familiar 100 m race, then extends the imagination with a large-structure comparison.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":51,"og:type":86,"og:title":13,"og:site_name":58,"og:description":14},"article",{"robots":88,"canonical":51},"index,follow",{"doc_id":7,"site_id":23},{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":91},[92,95,99,103,108,113,118,123,128,131,135],{"id":11,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":12,"show_sort_weight":93,"slug":94},90,"story-novel",{"id":46,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":96,"show_sort_weight":97,"slug":98},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":52,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":100,"show_sort_weight":101,"slug":102},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":104,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":105,"show_sort_weight":106,"slug":107},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":109,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":110,"show_sort_weight":111,"slug":112},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":114,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":115,"show_sort_weight":116,"slug":117},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":119,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":120,"show_sort_weight":121,"slug":122},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":124,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":125,"show_sort_weight":126,"slug":127},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":126,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":129,"show_sort_weight":126,"slug":130},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":132,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":133,"show_sort_weight":132,"slug":134},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":136,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":137,"show_sort_weight":104,"slug":138},19,"General","general"]
