Measuring objects doesn’t have to happen only in the classroom. The kitchen is full of opportunities to learn math!
Theme: Cooking Utensils In this thematic worksheet, we use items children see every day.
- The Objects: A fork, a spatula, and a whisk.
- The Unit: Instead of standard blocks, we are using “Sugar Cubes.”
Why Sugar Cubes? Sugar cubes are perfect for non-standard measurement because they are uniform squares, just like math cubes. This activity helps children generalize the concept of measurement to new environments.
