Measuring and Ordering 1.MD.1, 1.MD.2

Directions

Students will work through 3 stations:

1)Ordering construction paper strips – Students place the strips in order from shortest to longest or longest to shortest and record the colors next to the appropriate terms on the record sheet.

2)Measuring real-world objects – Students use color tiles and large paper clips to measure the lengths of 3 objects.

3)Ordering tape strips – Students measure the lengths of 3 sections of tape.

Teacher Directions: (Lesson 1)

Station 1: Cut 3- one inch width construction paper stripsin different colors at 3 different lengths, for example, 3inches, 6 inches, 9 inches long.

Station 2: Collect 3 objects- science book, unsharpened pencil with eraser, and dry erase marker

Station 3: Tape 3 sections of tape on the floor that are different lengths and different colors, for example, red- 5 inches yellow- 7 inches blue- 12 inches. Tape the lines so that they are not parallel or beginning at the same point.

Teacher Directions: (Lesson 2)

Station 1: Station 1: Cut and tape together 3- one inch width construction paper strips 24 inches, 32 inches, 29 inches long in different colors.

Station 2: Tape 3 sections of tape on the floor: For example, red- 28 inches yellow- 17 inches blue- 31 inches. Tape the lines so that they are not parallel or beginning at the same point.
