Scale City | Proportional Relationships in the Real World

In this video, students visit the Kentucky Horse Park where they are introduced to the question How are speed, time, and distance interrelated? The accompanying activity builds on a demonstration from the video of the length of Man o’ War’s stride versus the length of a person’s stride by allowing students to measure their own strides versus that of the great racehorse.
