Dear Parents,
This week, Grade 1 has been busy learning all about measuring!
We explored non-standard units — measuring with things like our own hands and blocks. The students had so much fun using their hands to measure different objects around the classroom!
First, they made an estimate: for example, “How many hands long do you think the TV is?”
After making their guesses, they measured the real length and wrote it down. They checked whose estimate was the closest and even recorded their results using tally marks!
It was a great way to see how measuring can be both fun and useful. Next week, we will continue measuring using other non-standard units.
A big thank you to all families for the wonderful support at home!
We love seeing the fun videos and photos you are sharing of your children’s learning experiences. Please keep reading together and enjoying the learning journey!
Enjoy the photos below and take a look at all the fun and learning we had this week.
Warm regards,
Ms. Guinee
