We had life-size pictures of a mother possum to measure. There are 10 different measurement tools in our classroom to work with and each child records their results in their "Possum Journal".
Hannah and Paisley measure using dominoes.
Now clothespins...
Richard records in his journal - he's excited that the number of washers is 25!
Ryan is measuring and recording milk bottle caps.
Reese and Loghan use legos to measure their mother possum.
Richard and Gideon work together.
Danny is carefully recounting the washers.
Cabella checks with her partner, Tanner, before she records.
Baylee and Mykaia are using 1 inch squares (notice their patterns). Baylee did the tail and Mykaia the body. In this picture they are counting together.
Tanner gets all the milk caps in place.
Teamwork! Tanner and Cabella count together.
