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 Length template.
Look
at the top line and estimate how many elephants, or other KidPix stamps
would fit along it.
Type
in your estimate.
Fill
the line with stamps and check.
Type
in the exact amount and compare with your estimate.
Select
other stamps for the next two lines. Estimate and check each time.
