Learning About Measurement!
Our class has been learning about non-standard measurement. This means we measure things using objects instead of rulers. We used different items like cubes and classroom materials to measure objects around our room.
We also learned that measurement has rules. When we measure, we need to:
-
Start at the edge of the object
-
Place the items in a straight line
-
Make sure there are no gaps between the items
The students had so much fun exploring the classroom and discovering how long and tall different things are. We are becoming great little mathematicians and problem-solvers!
As part of our learning about non-standard measurement, we used snap cubes to measure how tall we are.
