Two weeks ago the preschoolers began studying measurement and learned about yardsticks. Last week the unit continued as the children explored rulers.
They began by comparing rulers and yardsticks. The children placed rulers on top of yardsticks and discovered that three rulers fit on a yardstick.
Next the children measured the tables and counted the rulers in Chinese.
The teachers took a large piece of butcher paper and laid it out on the gym floor. The children learned to draw lines with their yardsticks.
