Featuring the use of arbitrary units like hand spans, desk widths, rice, and water, each of the fifty activities per level provides the opportunity for students to relate math to their surroundings. Exploring measurement provides a developmental approach to understanding the concept of length, area, volume, mass and time. Using spatial awareness as a springboard, this series includes fascinating activities integrating basic math operations, estimating and observing into a balanced presentation of all five concepts. From measuring with fingers to tessellating with colors to estimating the time to write fifteen "ai" words, Exploring Measurement is full of fresh, meaningful activities.
