Measurement

We have been working on measurement. We have focused on measuring length, weight, and volume. Some of the activities that we have been engaged in include an airplane throw and long jump activity in which the students measure the distance their airplane travels or how far they can jump. They measured these distances in inches and then converted them to feet and yards.
We also measured weight and volume and used classroom objects to estimate and weigh in pounds and ounces. The students enjoyed being able to choose the items and discover the weights of those items.
