I am thinking about the classic stacking styrofoam cups tasks in linear algebra or the # Act task about stacking packs of copy paper. Letting students directly measure with cups or paper packs. There could be cups with different sized lips or jumbo vs regular size packs. I think the question of “how many packs to get to the ceiling?” starts the progression of direct to indirect nicely.
