Measure It! Paperclips
These 20 images give students practice measuring the height and width of various pictures with paperclips. Ready to print, each sheet contains a spot for students to write in their measurement of the pencil, ice cream treat, insect, car, and…
How to Check for Squareness
When it comes to teaching students how to make sure your foundation has a true 90 degree corner to work from, I like to use the simple „3, 4, 5 Rule.“ This is also known as the Pythagorean Theorem (A^2…
