Measurement in Third Grade

Mrs. FitzPatrick's third graders are working hard on a measurement unit.  


Kids are learning to decompose large metric units into smaller units. 


You can decompose a number based on the ones, tens, hundreds, and thousands place.


This is helping us understand place value (1000 is 10 times 100) and operations (1000 mL minus 345 mL is 655 mL).


 Kids are enjoying the hands on component to this work and learning good group work skills and materials management.
