Metric System Collaborative Project: Inspired by Ant-Man the movie
This project was inspired from the Ant-Man movies. Students will use the metric system, powers of 10, measurement, collaboration and communication skills to create a scale model of a GIANT ant. Students will work together to convert small metric units into larger ones using powers of 10, create parts for the model by carefully measuring, and solving problems. I included an answer key for the paper-and-pencil part of the activity. The only additional materials needed are newspapers, masking

Volume of Rectangular Prisms Hyperdoc - DISTANCE & ONLINE LEARNING
What is a hyperdoc? It is an interactive document with hyperlinks to learning opportunities and activities. You can use this for live lessons, independent learning, or both! Here's a tip: If you plan to use it over multiple days, insert a blank slide wherever you want them to stop and add a stop sign! Also... BONUS! It is easy to grade and give feedback on :) Assign a section or a few slides at a time, check in to give feedback, then the kids continue working in the document! This hyperdoc incl
Cell Size- Investigating why we have trillions of cells and not one big cell?
This highly engaging activity (Google and PDF versions) using agar cubes (representing cells) explains why we are made up of trillions of cells and not just one big cell. The diffusion of “food” moving into the agar “cells” is observed and measurements recorded. Depending on their math ability, the students will calculate the surface area and volume of the agar “cells'' and they will be able to see why the ratio of surface area to volume is so important in determining the size of cells. However
