Active Learning: Measuring the Bug

  • Real-world situations give students a chance to use measuring tools correctly.
  • Students estimate the size of the bug then measure it with the meter stick.
  • The bug is released and allowed to run for 10 seconds.
  • The distance the bug has traveled is measured.
  • The students record this distance on their recording sheet.
