We are currently doing a mini math unit on Measurement. Students are learning the difference between centimeters and inches. They are learning how to measure as well as how to estimate. Students are also learning about perimeter (the distance around a shape). Students are creating Shape Books to help them develop a firm understanding regarding the properties of the different 2-D and 3-D shapes.
------> 2D: Triangle, Square, Rectangle, Quadrilateral, Pentagon and Hexagon
------> 3D: Rectangular Prism and Cube
Last week, they measured the heights of their classmates (collected the data) and then used a line plot to look at the data. Students enjoyed making meter tapes to do this.
