Activity Overview / Details
This lesson is comprised of a power point presentation titled,
"Foundations of Measurement", and one student measurement activity.
After the students have had a chance to discuss the visuals
in the "hook/set" portion of the lesson, pass out a Student Outline
to each student and begin the power point presentation. The student
outline handout mirrors the power point with spaces for the
students to take notes. Teacher leads discussion on each slide,
students ask questions and we dialog about each slide. Students
