Chalk Outlines

On Friday afternoon we took math outdoors and joined forces with the other second grade classroom!
Students were partnered up and used chalk to measure one anothers heights. Students were able to be as creative as they wanted to measure their heights, and of course they all took to outlining their bodies. In addition, they also had a variety of tasks to complete, all related to the measurements they found. 
- Conversions from inches to feet and inches 
- Find the difference between the two heights
- Determine which partner had the greater height 
It was a nice change from the norm of being in the building in our classroom!
