What educators are saying
What a great resource! Great resource, easy to use, kids were engaged throughout the lesson. I have recommended this lesson to fellow teachers and they love it as well.
My anatomy and physiology students were challenged with the activity. They worked in pairs and were all engaged in problem solving. This is a great activity.

Key includes answers to questions regarding found bones at a construction site where students used the formula to estimate heights and draw inferences about the number of bodies at the location.
