Description

In this online activity, learners measure aspects of their bodies in centimeters, then electronically submit data on their measurement. They can then compare their measurements to the lengths of equivalent body parts of other animals. Their ears are compared to a bat, a mouse, a sea lion, and a gorilla; their feet to a raccoon, coyote, anteater, and deer; and their height to a bat, hamster, mouse or jackrabbit. There is a link to a page with more activities.
