Upper grade and middle schoolers explore mathematics by participating in a measuring activity. They hypothesize on what the average height of a male or female 6th grader is and identify ways to find the average mathematically. Learners discuss the differences between median, mode, and mean averages before measuring each student and creating a data table.
