Throughout the month of January, Kindergarten and 1st Grade Colts have done a deep dive into geometry and measurement. 📏
Students have been busy mastering essential vocabulary and getting hands-on with various measurement tools! It’s been fun watching them explore different units of measurement to compare:
Length: Using rulers and cubes to determine how long or short objects are. 📏
Mass: Using scales to compare & feel the difference between heavy and light items. ⚖️
Volume: Exploring how much space liquids or solids take up in different containers. 🧪
We’ve enjoyed watching Colts build, sort, and measure their way through these interactive lessons!
