Measuring

Friday, January 28, 2011

In our middle session today we spent some time in small groups measuring our arms.

First we predicted whose arm would be the longest.


We then talked about some things to take into consideration when we measured:
- Keep our arms straight
- Measure from the shoulder to the wrist

Then we used streamers to measure from our shoulder to wrist.  We compared the length of our streamers in our small groups.


Our streamers are now displayed from the longest arm to the shortest arm.


Something interesting that we noted was that Eli is the tallest person in our class and he has the longest arm, while Charlotte is the shortest and she has the shortest arm.
