Taller/Shorter

In math workshop this week, we have been continuing our measurement unit by discussing taller, shorter and longer.

After discussing what it means to be taller or shorter than something or someone, the kindergartners were each given a Post-it note and asked to draw a picture of something around the room that they found that was taller and something that was shorter then them.
We then put our Post-it notes on the easel to show what is taller and shorter than a kindergartner.




Objects that we found that are taller than us including doors, our mailboxes, the animal tanks and the refrigerator in our kitchen set. Items that we found that were shorter than us included the tables, chairs, game shelf and listening center.

We also took turns standing in lines to find other kindergartners that were both taller and shorter then we are.
