4. How Square are You? - Applying Data (Plan)

In this activity we will measure how square we are.  Did you know that in general your height is almost the same measurement as the length of your arm span.  We will be measuring this can comparing and contrasting how your measurements relate to others in your class, across the grades in your district, and even those of students in other school districts.
