We looked at the Tallest Dinosaur. Prior to reading our story, we asked the children if they knew what the word length meant. The children seemed a little stumped, until we began asking them some inference questions. We invited them to look at the cover of the book and to tell us about the dinosaur. A few of them shouted out that he was tall.
We discovered that tall is when something has a greater height compared to the plant because it has a shorter distance.
After we finished our discussion of the dinosaur’s heights, each student was given a measuring tape and they started measuring things around the classroom and it was a fun-filled day of measurement, and in particular length exploration.
The maths challenge for the week was – Who is taller in your family?
