We've been learning a lot about the words heavy and light at the science table which took us to a weight conversation. We already knew how tall our pumpkins was and now we wanted to see how much it weighed. We used our predicting skills to guess how many pounds our pumpkin was then weighed it using a digital scale. However, we discovered that the pumpkin was too light for the scale to read so we had to get creative! Take a look at the process below
Making a guess |
Pass the pumpkin |
We recorded our answers to compare them! |
hmmm, our scale is not working! |
Maybe the pumpkin is too light! |
We weighed M with the pumpkin and without... |
then used our math skills to subtract (With a little help from Mrs. Meredith and Mrs. C!) |
