Teacher models how to measure distance from the mid-ocean ridge on the paper model using a consistent scale (e.g., 1 cm = X million years). Students practice identifying the ridge centerline, measuring both sides symmetrically, and recording units, scale, and measurement conditions in their notebooks.
