How Much Space?
by Hannah McKolay
I use this lesson as a fun activity to visualize unit conversions and the immense scale of the universe. I love this lesson because I find it challenging to teach unit conversions with hands-on applications (other than standard measurement activities, of course!). It also allows us to get outside, which I try to do as much as possible!
