Measurement in Room 4

Measuring in Room 4

I have experimented with everyday items as units of measure to investigate and compare sizes and amounts in my environment, sharing my findings with others. MNU 0-11a

We had a discussion about the words longest and shortest. We looked at lots of objects and found the longest and the shortest.

Shares ideas with a wider audience, for example, group or class. Benchmark ENG 0-03a / LIT 0-02a

Makes an attempt to take turns when listening and talking in a variety of contexts. Benchmark ENG 0-03a / LIT 0-02a

Compares and describes lengths, heights, mass and capacities using everyday language, including longer, shorter, taller, heavier, lighter, more and less. Benchmark MNU 0-11a

Listens and responds to others appropriately. Benchmark ENG 0-03a / LIT 0-02a

I built towers with the shortest and growing to the longest.

I added 1 more each time and it got taller.

It looks like steps. They make you go higher.
