A recent global survey of Chiefs Executives, Educators and students conducted by the Economist Intelligence Unit (The Skills Agenda: Preparing students for the future 2015) asked contributors to try to identify what skills might be required to learn and earn as we enter the third decade of the 21c.

S2 Ratio & Proportion

Leave a comment

My new S2 class was intrigued with the following :

· A piece of string wrapped twice around your thumb equals a piece of string wrapped around your wrist.

· A piece of string wrapped twice around your wrist is equal to a piece of string wrapped once around your neck.

· A piece of string wrapped three times around your head is equal to a piece of string that is the same as your height.

· Your height is equal to your arm span.

So, a small project has been started to investigate if it this is true.
