Measurement Fun!

We are learning how to measure!!!

We learned two important words:
-Measure
-Length-How long or short something is?

We talked about why we need to know how to measure.
-It helps us to know how long or short something is.
-Measurement helps us to know if something will find or not.

Since we are in Kindergarten, we don't typically use rulers yet.
However, we can use different non-standard items, 
like cubes, links, or paperclips, to help us measure.

Check out our measurement activities.


We had to find things around the room that were longer and shorter
than our popsicle sticks.




We recorded our findings.


Next, we ordered different objects by their length.
Shortest to Longest
