Print the cutouts of the dog and cat on cardstock



Print the cutouts of the dog and cat on cardstock. Glue the two together & laminate. (Make one for every two students.) So there would be a cat on one side and a dog on the other side. Give each group of students a cat/dog cutout. Have them stand and drop the cutout to the ground. Then, have them graph the results of doing this 10 times. Discuss the results. I created a printable to match this activity..
