 Smile Metric Style
Mrs. Dollar’s 6th grade math classes participated in a group project called “Smile Metric Style”. The focus of this lesson was the metric system. Students were put into groups and measured the length of each other’s smiles in centimeters and millimeters. All students in each group had to agree on the metric measurement. After the groups measured, they had to total all measurements in centimeters and millimeters. Students were then instructed to order the measurements from least to greatest, a previously learned skill. When all students were finished with this part of the project, the groups reported to the class, and their measurements were put onto the board. A total of all the groups’ measurements was found; and one huge smile, representing that total, was drawn on the board. This huge smile was measured in centimeters and converted to meters. Each student then was allowed to come to the board and draw a part of the face to complete the project. All groups did well and had their own unique drawings. The pictures displayed here show the students at work on their project.
