We Ate Dirt Today!

Today we continued our exploration of capacity. We discussed attributes of our containers (wide, skinny, tall, short) and picked out ones that might have a large capacity and ones that might have a small capacity. We then filled our container full (but not overflowing) and did a BIG number count using 10 frames. The smallest capacity was 20 blocks and the largest capacity was 135 blocks! With a bit of assistance we used our counting by 10 skills to help us out!

 

 It looked a lot like Block City!

We also read Diary of A Worm. When the students were done they were asked to draw a picture of their favorite part, using as much detail as possible and then were asked to recall the main character and talk about their picture. They did a super job of their pictures!

The BEST part of the day was EATING DIRT!! The students had fun crushing cookies, burying their worms and then eating the dirt!


 
 
 


Have a great day and don't forget about swimming tomorrow!

See you in the morning!
The K team :)
