Measuring the structures

During a class discussion about the strength of structures, some 

children shared ideas about forms of measurement. 

Some thoughts emerged from the conversation and are seen below:

         Could one be too heavy??

    That one is made out of blocks. 

   I think it might knock down some, but not all of it. 

       How tall are the structures? 

A small group of children helped to classify the buildings by size:

                            Big- 6 

                     Medium - 3

                              Small -4 

             Recording our findings 

       See our findings on display in the classroom

      We hope to begin testing the strength this week!!
