Measuring Everywhere and Everything!!!



We just finished up our lessons on using non-standard units to measure items in our world. My students were so excited they even wanted to measure when we came back from our field trips. They used many different items to measure and discuss how the length of each object. Here are some pics.
Students learned how to join strings to find the length of the computer  cart.

They used 2 different forms of measurements to compare.
Their favorite was measuring the carpet with Dum-Dums.

We wrote a letter to the 1st grade classes so that they could know how to measure as well.
