How Square are YOu?

How Square are You? is a simple project involving a number of different Arch Plans and a data Form. We invite you to conduct the activities to explore how interesting, "safe" data can be collected within and across school districts for students to contribute and analyze the resulting data "on the fly".

We invite ALCA Members and Nonmembers alike to conduct the activities with their students. The following How Square are You? unit contains a set of lesson plans that can be printed and used. However, ALCA members can use them within their ALCA Classes and complete the fields for analysis within the Comprehend Data tool.

​So, let's take a look at each of the example lessons!
