Weight and Capacity Wall display

Thought we should take a photo of this before it comes down to be replaced with some of our new Math learning.

We made some scones...we made 1 each.  We followed the recipe carefully...and measured out our ingredients using cups/teaspoons/tablespoons and grams.

We weighed ourselves with the bathroom scales....then each math group added their weights together to calculate a group total.
We used tens and ones to represent our weights.....some of us used our pulling down the tens strategy to calculate our totals...and some of us used a calculator to help us.

We also did a lot of measuring with rice/water/beans.....first we always made a guesstimate ...then we proceded to use our measuring tools to get our accurate answers.

We collected milk containers....about 100 in total. We had 1litre, 2 litre, 3 litre milk containers ....and 500ml, 300ml and 250 ml cream containers.
