Learning Measurement through Visual Art 

Students have come to appreciate the critical role of measurements in constructing a 3D model of their farm scenes. Much like architects, they carefully and thoughtfully constructed blueprint plans for their farms. Prior to construction, they have provided the precise measurements required for their models. Through this process, students discovered that effective planning not only saves time but also conserves materials. Their blueprints provided a clear roadmap of their needs, detailing precisely what was necessary and in what quantities. 

This term, our focus has been on mastering unlabelled graduations. Interpreting these graduations poses a considerable challenge, demanding a grasp of various mathematical concepts, including multiplicative thinking. When faced with partially labelled instruments, students were tasked with understanding fractions and discerning the relationship between different units of measurement.
