Measuring Up
Posted by Faith BarbutoKindergarten has been exploring lots of different ways to measure. We have been using standard and nonstandard units of measure depending upon what is being measured. Students are getting familiar with measurement language like height, width, weight and volume. For a an active math lesson we buddied up to measure each other. You can’t measure yourself after all! Students used links to measure parts of their buddies’ bodies and recorded that data. In a cross curricular activity, we set out to measure the largest animal- a blue whale! We used the arm span of a kindergartner- approximately 3 feet- to stretch out to the massive 90 feet of a whale! Now that’s big!
