PIPS2 Activity 1: To measure the span of the family’s hands, compare size and link to growth. Lots of discussion about size and similarities and differences. Children were asked to measure to the nearest cm the span of each hand and recorded it on the drawing. Some made a table of results on paper, some did this using the spreadsheet tool on Clarisworks. Hands were displayed on classroom wall. A scanner could come in handy too (see image). Muriel Cook |
