| Step Number | Step Title | Length (minutes) | Details |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Introduction to Measurements | 5 | Introduce the concepts of length, weight, and volume. Explain the importance of accurate measurements in daily life. |
| 2 | Measurement Tools Overview | 5 | Discuss the tools used for measuring length (rulers), weight (scales), and volume (measuring cups). Provide a demonstration of how to use each tool. |
| 3 | Group Measurement Activity | 10 | Divide students into groups of 4. Each group will measure different classroom objects using rulers, scales, and measuring cups. Record the measurements on the provided worksheets. |
| 4 | Class Discussion | 5 | Regroup and discuss the findings of each group. Ask students what they measured and how accurate they felt their measurements were. |
| 5 | Homework Assignment | 5 | Distribute homework assignments that require students to measure objects at home and record their measurements. Explain that there will be no presentations in front of the class to check the homework. |
Wrap up the lesson by summarizing key points and reinforcing the significance of measurement in everyday life. Encourage students to explore measurements at home and in their community for further practice.
