This week we have been studying scientists and talking about the tools they use. We did an activity called, Measure Me, that had students estimating the length, mass, volume and time of certain objects and activities.
Students used scales, rulers, meter sticks, graduated cylinders and stopwatches to measure a variety of items around the room. They even timed how fast they could tie their shoes and sing the "Happy Birthday" song. The fastest rendition was nine seconds long and the longest stretched to almost a minute long!
Students did a very accurate job estimating and completing the actual measurements! We have a class filled with awesome scientists!!
