It was a cold rainy day in November and we just had to get outside for some fresh air. We discovered how to investigate the puddles and still stay dry.....

| Ms Lee brought out a collection of rulers and yard sticks for the children to go on a puddle hunt and measure how deep the puddles were. This was an awesome example of using our natural environment to reach one of our math expectations. Exploring Standard and Non-Standard forms of measurement. One of our students decided to collect several different sizes of sticks to pass out to his friends to measure the puddles. He said; "these are non-standard measurement tools because they don't have numbers on them and the sticks are all different sizes. " |

Some students also measured how wide the puddles were. |

This student used a stick to measure how deep the puddle was. He said his stick was bigger then the puddle. |
