Measurement Curriculum
Just a quick view at something new we started in January.
We began our unit on measurement and as I find there is a lack of interest among the students in this topic I decided to create centres to make learning about measurement more hands on fun!
Here is a glimpse of some things we did at our centres so far and how they are connected to the grade one curriculum:
Estimate, measure and describe the capacity and/or mass of an object, through investigation using non-standard units.
Describe the objects using relative terms.
Use the metre as a benchmark for measuring length, and compare the metre with non-standard units.
Estimate, measure and record lengths, heights, and distances.
Compare and order objects by their linear measurements, using the same non-standard unit.
Demonstrate an understanding of the use of non-standard units of the same size for measuring.
Estimate, measure and describe area through investigation using non-standard units.
Compare and order objects by their linear measurements, using the same non-standard unit.
