Teachers, save “Compare the volumes of different contain…” to assign it to your class.

We are learning to compare the volumes of a number of different containers by pouring from one to the other I can see that some containers, which look different, can have the same volume I can see that some containers might hold the same amount even though they are very different shapes First - find 2 or 3 containers that look different but could hold similar amounts of water Next - ask family members to guess which holds the most and see if anyone is “tricked" Then - we will problem solve and experiment Problem solve – 1. These cups all look the same. How can we find out the amounts they hold? 2. What material will you use to check the capacity? 3. Make a video or use photos and labels to show your thinking
