Capacity

Capacity
This week we have been exploring the idea of measuring volume. We have used a variety of non-standard containers to compare the volumes of containers.

As part of our experiences we were challenged to construct a cylinder to fit certain numbers of objects.  Most of us did it!   We had to keep changing the size of our cylinders. Group b said, First it was too big then we made it skinny and it was to small.  Then we made it a bit bigger and it was the right size.
