In this activity, learners investigate whether more people are squares or rectangles. People with similarly sized heights and arm spans are classified as squares.

This activity (located on page 2 of PDF) introduces learners to the real size of animals using nonstandard measurement.

In this Cyberchase activity, learners use math to explore how parts of the body are proportional.

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 health activity (page 5 of the PDF), learners will explore a unique connection betweeen the bones of the body.

In this activity, learners investigate parallax, a method used to measure distances to stars and planets in the solar system.

In this activity, learners use their senses to collect information about a fruit and record their findings in a Science Journal.

In this activity, learners explore and experiment how we can use our bodies everyday to get from one place to another.

In this activity, learners make three different "seed" types and determine which design flies the farthest.

Using a real-size sketch of a baby elephant's footprint, learners estimate, measure and record the width (diameter) and outside edge length (perimeter or circumference) of the footprint.

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

Put math of measurement into lining up — and make waiting in line fun. Choose a size characteristic that learners can physically compare, such as foot length or hair length.

In this activity (located on page 4 of PDF), learners gain insight into the actual size of dinosaurs and practice making estimations and measurements.

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 activity, learners compare the ancient Egyptian system of measurement, which was based on body lengths, to the customary and metric systems used today.

This is an activity in which learners will find that they can detect differences in concentration better with their nose (smelling) than with their eyes (seeing).

In this activity related to microbes, learners create scale models of microorganisms and compare relative sizes of common bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa using metric measures: meters, centimete

In this activity, learners explore how engineers incorporate biometric technologies into products as well as the challenges of engineers who must weigh privacy, security and other issues when designin

In this health and fitness activity, learners focus on the importance of daily physical activity, specifically walking.
