More Measurement

Last week we read the story of the Gingerbread man and acted it out around the classroom, then we made our own Gingerbread Man to use for measurement, we had to find something taller and something shorter than him in the classroom.

We can order numbers 1 to 20!

...and we can measure height using non-standard units...

Measurement

We are learning to measure length with non-standard units, today we used the cubes to measure our favourite soft toy as well as drawing outlines.  We discovered that Tristan's bird was the smallest at just 8 cubes long and Lily's puppy was the tallest at 22 cubes long...
