Measuring bugs!

This week in math we are learning about measuring things. We spent one day measuring how many butterflies tall we are and comparing us to our friend (see picture below).

Today I let the students draw an insect (most decided to draw a butterfly) then we used cubes to see how long our insect was using cubes. Check out their work below.

Fox in Socks

We read the book Fox in Socks and the Foot Book on the day we wore our Silly Socks.

As a class we made a graph where we found out who had on silly socks and who did not.

Later that day we all drew a picture of ourselves. Then we took turns with a partner laying on the ground and using our measuring feet to see how many feet tall we are.

Then the students wrote it down on their foot and we attached it to the picture.
