5 more days until summer vacation!!! I know myself and the students are ready for some fun in the sun. However, while we are at school, I am trying to control the madness and offer many hands-on and creative activities for the students. Today, we worked on My Measurement Book. Measurement with a ruler is not a 1st grade standard but it is something that is useful and fun for the students.
First, we talked about how to read a ruler, where to line it up, and how inches and centimeters are different. Then, we started the measurement madness!
Check out the face paint! (It was School Spirit Day!)
Now comes the fun part - measure a friend!
I marked off inches on the white board for the kids to use, I figured it would be easier than laying 4 rulers along each students body :)
