Here are some of the drawings that the kids made for their insect reports. They did such a fabulous job with them!
For our measurement unit, the class had a great time walking about the room using their rulers (standard units) and objects (non-standard units) to measure various items. One of the activities was a type of scavenger hunt to find items that fit the given measurement. Can you believe that there was a line to measure my body parts? I love my school kids!
