In this activity, young learners use different-sized paper 'caterpillars' and various household items to predict and measure their height.

In this math lesson, learners apply measurement skills to determine, in dollar bills, the capacity of a suitcase.

In this activity, learners explore the size and scale of dinosaurs. Learners listen to "The Littlest Dinosaurs" by Bernard Most to learn about the different sizes of dinosaurs.

In this nutrition and estimation activity (page 12 of PDF), learners estimate serving sizes of different foods and compare their estimates to serving size information provided on nutrition food labels

In this activity, learners explore the size and scale of dinosaurs. Learners listen to "The Littlest Dinosaurs" by Bernard Most. Then, learners estimate the size of a Triceratops and T.

In this math lesson, learners apply the concepts of ratio and proportion to determine the length of the Statue of Liberty's torch-bearing arm.

In this math lesson (page 2 of the PDF), learners use bottles of various shapes to explore the abstract concept of rate of change.

In this math lesson, learners measure, predict and determine the frequency of an event as it relates to how close Whirlybirds land to a target.

In this activity, learners construct hand-held altitude trackers. The device is a sighting tube with a marked water level that permits measurement of the inclination of the tube.

In this activity, learners will decide together on a question about how far, long or high the group could reach together.

In this activity, learners take measurements and create charts to learn about the size of dinosaurs and their relative scale to humans.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Soccer Ball Kick) is a full inquiry investigation into transfer of motion.

In this activity, learners use their estimation skills to match the unmarked containers to their amounts.

In this math activity, learners estimate how many pennies are in a jar by predicting and counting handfuls of pennies.

In this math lesson, learners estimate distances between landmarks and use a map and scales to determine the actual distances.

In this math lesson, learners use hinged mirrors to discover that regular polygons are composed of triangles tessellating around a center point.

In this activity, learners interpret three trackways and use measurements and a formula to infer the relative speed of dinosaurs.

In this activity, learners explore conservation of energy by experimenting with a solar cell light device.

In this activity, learners will build the highest tower they can out of recycled materials.

In this math lesson, learners construct box-and-whisker plots to analyze and compare data sets. Learners investigate whether or not long-legged people run faster than short-legged people.
