Counting/Combining and Separating strategies continue to be practiced and used from the prior unit.
|
Practice Games: Ten Turns, Five in a Row, On and Off, Counters in a Cup, and Double Compare
Ask “How many of each?”
I have 13 apples and pears. How many of each could I have? Use pictures, numbers, or words to help keep track. | |
| Measurement |
Collect a small group of objects to figure out which one is lightest and which
one is heaviest.
Weigh fruit at the grocery store to have experiences in feeling the weight of things
Cook together. Have your child help with filling, measuring and leveling off.
Which holds more? The glass or the mug? How can you prove it?
Estimate length. How many chairs can fit along one side of the table? |
| TOOLS |
Blocks, drawings, beans, fingers, 100 Chart, number line etc. |

Capacity
Tallest to Shortest |
Unit: Bigger, Taller, Heavier, Smaller
This unit focuses on measuring length, capacity, and weight. They will be comparing objects to determine the measurements and learning the importance of aligning beginning points to measure length. They will continue the work on counting/combining and separating while measuring. They will use words to describe what they are measuring such as: long, short, wide, tall, heavy, light, even, full, empty, deep, narrow. They will also use the comparing forms of these words --- longer, shorter, heavier and so forth.
