The goal of this exhibit is to teach the concept of large numbers. Visitors can turn a wheel to reach one million turns. Once the one millionth turn is made, a glass goblet located in the exhibit will smash. With a clear tube full of one million small beads, visitors can spin the tube and count the beads to see if they can find the one black bead. This exhibit contains a height and age graph.
Visitors can plot their height and age by placing a dot where the two meet.
In this exhibit, young visitors can measure the height of a horse image on a graphic panel by using their hands, and then compare their results with other visitors. Visitors will learn that size will differ depending on the length of their hands thus reinforcing the need for a unified measuring system like the Metric System. By examining information on different graphs, young visitors can determine if the information that they are viewing is fair or presented to make something look much better than it really is. Visitors can compare their results by flipping up a curtain that shows how the information on the graphs ought to appear. With the assistance of Ms. Measuroni, young visitors can measure themselves by finding their height, weight, and grip strength on a graph.
