ACT
In this activity, students learn about the JOIDES Resolution, an ocean-drilling vessel. They then use string to estimate the length of the ship and compare their estimates to the real length. They look at how deep the ocean water under the ship would be and how far into the seafloor the ship would need to drill. An additional challenge asks them to use ratios to draw the proportions of the ship on grid paper.
