Go outside to measure how tall you are, using our own rulers.

Split students into two or three groups; each child has a partner. Demonstrate how to have your partner lie down and you trace around their body on the ground. Talk about touching each other carefully and respectfully. After the outline is drawn, work together to estimate how tall that person is and then to figure it out using your own rulers.

Sharing at the end: what did you discover? What was easy/hard?
