Amazing Measurement

We are learning about measurement. We drew around our bodies with chalk and then we used rods or other objects from the classroom to measure parts of our body.

We measured how tall we are. Like me (Jacob) and Maia are both 55 counters tall. Other people come be taller or shorter than us.

We also measured how long other parts of our body are. We can get objects from the class to measure how long parts of our body are.

We have to make sure the objects we are using are all the same size.

We were estimating how long our body part is before we measured it. We are getting really good a estimating.

We also learnt you can measure using your hands. If different people measure with their hands they get different answers because their hands are different sizes.

We want to find out the length of our classroom. We thought we could measure it with our bodies. We wonder, how many Cam's would fit down the length of our classroom?

Bye for now,
