This product includes in-depth directions, group responsibilities, recording sheet with teacher check-points (checkpoints are weighted and add up to 100 points), a group participation survey and independent reflection!

Three pages: Page 1 is directions, Page 2 & 3 are the recording sheet print 2-sided and pass out! Ready to go!

I took three days to complete this project from beginning to end including a short introduction and conclusion. Paced the classes based on check-points.

I gave each group a different length stick and at the correct check-point allowed them to measure their stick to check percent error. We measured our classroom but can be used to measure anything!
