Measurement

May 18, 2010 - 7:08 pm No Comments

This week Shearwaters have been looking at the volume of different containers. They have discussed how much water various containers hold and then measured using a litre jug. They have also learnt to estimate how much a container might hold using a bench mark litre container. Shearwaters can quiet accurately estimate whether a container holds less, about or more than 1 litre of water. They have also been ordering the containers from least to most volume.
As home work for tuesday night this week, Shearwaters have been asked to bring a container that they estimate to be about 1 litre volume.
