Masters of Measurement!

We have been measuring up a storm here in 1st grade and we got to use many different measurement tools, even our body parts!

First graders used non-standard and standard units of measurement to measure objects around the room. Here we are practicing our measuring skills:

Using our body parts to measure. Everyone's measurements are different!

We used cubes to measure how long a gorilla's hand and our hand are. 

We learned about the inch and measured objects with a ruler. 

We helped our math buddies measure with tape measures too!

We compared heights!

We have a test tomorrow! 

Be sure to practice missing addends at home. 

1.0A.4 Understand subtraction as an unknown addend problem (what number makes 10 when added to 8) 1.0A.8 Determine the unknown whole number in an addition or subtraction equation  

Also, practice comparing the lengths of 3 different objects.

1. MD.1 & .2 Order three objects by length, compare the length of two objects indirectly by using a third object (shortest to longest and longest to shortest)
