What would Barbie Look like if she were Real?
Ever wondered what Barbie would look like if she were real? Now you can work with your students to find out!
Part 3
In order to save you and your students time, I measured various segments of Barbie's actual doll measurements. Students can use their measurements from Parts 1 and 2 of the Human Body Proportion Lab (available on TCP) OR measure their height or foot size to determine the SCALE FACTOR between their body and the doll's body. Using the SF, students will determine Barbie's measure

T. Swift & Metrics- A Problem-Based Learning (PBL) Activity
I came up with this activity to teach the metric system to my gifted students. The problem centers around Taylor Swift going on tour and requiring some information from my students. You could definitely change the artist to someone more popular with your group of kids.
I posed the problem to them by having them read the situation titled "A Diva's Crisis." Then, they were assigned to groups and brainstormed a list of questions to put in the "W" section of a KWL chart (a teacher answer key is

Micro:bit remote temperature sensor data collection with progress bar
This lesson gets temperature sensor data from the built-in sensor. The lesson uses two Micro:bits. One collects temperature data and the other receives the data. The data is collected and saved to a comma-separated value file.The code uses the Micro:bit’s radio to transmit the data. Use this to discuss how radio technology works. Radio technology uses frequencies. Frequencies are measured in amplitude and modulation. Discuss how amplitude and modulation are used to send information like music an

Accident Investigation Lab for Trig Students
A lab exercise in which students complete a simulation of investigating a vehicle accident by measuring the length of skid marks and calculating the speed of the braking vehicle. Students will measure the length using the number of revolutions and diameter of a rolling rotary device (such as sewing tracing wheel or pizza cutter.) This lab is designed for groups of 2 - 4 students and contains 5 different scenarios of the accident so different groups can analyze different situations. These mat

Social Issue Project: Dangerous Dolls?
During this project, students will measure themselves, measure action figures/dolls, and scale up the doll proportionally to life size, based on their height. Then, they will trace themselves on a large piece of butcher block paper. On that same paper, they will sketch out the life-sized doll proportions and create a body outline of what the doll would look like if it were their same height. They should finish with something that looks terribly disproportionate. From there, you can have a debate
