Unit K Barbie Project
How "real" is Barbie? A certain amount of controversy surrounds the dimensions that toy-maker Mattel used to create the original Barbie doll. Students will be working in class to figure out what Barbie's dimensions would be if she were a real person, proportional to her dimensions as a doll. We will then be writing letters to Mattel about whether or not Barbie is a positive role model for young children. Here is an interesting project surrounding this topic...
Another project on this same topic made a Barbie doll that would be proportional to our average 19 year old female. An article explaining the project can be found at: http://www.buzzfeed.com/alisonvingiano/this-barbie-doll-has-the-porportions-of-an-average-american.
Below is a picture of Barbie as we know her, and what Barbie would look like if she were actually proportional to the average female today.
