Instructional Ideas

• Divide the class into seven groups, give each group a problem to solve, and discuss the questions as a class when the groups have finished 
• Create additional questions measuring lengths inside and outside the classroom

Pros

• Real-world context enables critical thinking and enhances engagement 

Cons
