KEY IDEAS
Mathematics
Students
refine their concepts of size and measurable attributes and units of comparison....
Students
use direct measurement strategies and relationships between particular
attributes to quantify the size of 2-D figures ... They identify, plan
and act to address measurement problems.
Students
use their number sense to refine their ability to estimate, calculate and
present....
STUDENT TASKS
Open
the Area template. Choose a stamp and estimate how many would fit into
the small square.
Type
in your estimate. Stamp, check and then type in the correct amount.
Use
the rectangle tool to make a perfect medium-sized square in the
middle box along the top and a perfect large square in the last
box.
Repeat
what you did (estimate and then check) with the small square.
Use
the oval tool to make a small circle in the bottom left hand box, a medium-sized
circle in the middle box and a large circle in the last box.
Either
type, or copy and paste the words “I estimated” and “I counted” below each
circle.
Repeat
what you did with the squares.
