I am loving Alex Overwijk’s Knot activity more and more.
Go ahead and read about it!
Ropes of Different Thickness & Equal Lengths
I’m a huge advocate for having kids get their hands dirty and try things out. This one is particularly awesome because students get to experience how the rope length changes. They get to feel and create that change.
For those of you who don’t have ropes….or use this after the activity as part of a consolidation.
Problem 1- Solving a linear equation.
