Measurement Rocks!
We have been busy this week exploring nature, while learning about the different ways that you can measure an item. After going on a nature walk around our school, we used the rocks that we collected to investigate size, by sorting our rocks. Here are some pictures of our rock sort and a special snack that we created, while discussing the living and nonliving items that can be found in soil. Leave us a comment and let us know what you think! We love hearing from you! Thanks!
In math, we continued our study of measurement. We participated in measurement stations where we used M&Ms and cups to measure capacity, items from the room and cubes/links to measure length, and classroom items and a balance to measure weight. We had such a wonderful time! Then, we created tree maps to organize our thoughts and record some of the items that we discovered could be measured by length, weight, and capacity. Finally, we participated in a Measurement Show and Tell where we brought special things from home and explained to our friends how they could be measured. Here are some pictures from our study and a video of our Measurement Show and Tell. Leave us a comment and let us know what you think!
