Journal Article
Students Use Their Bodies to Measure Animals
1997
Overview
Uses the book entitled \"Biggest, Strongest, Fastest\" by Steve Jenkins to provide animal facts of interest to students, which in turn become the basis for other applications of mathematics. By using themselves as a unit of measure, students have a real-world connection to the problem. This method also helps to demonstrate that even careful measurements are approximations. (AIM)
