The mathematicians have been extending their knowledge of measurement by using thermometers to read the temperature of various containers of water. One container was filled with water in its solid form (ice), another was warmed in the microwave, and the last container was luke warm water taken from the sink.
The students and I discussed the definition of temperature- how hot or how cold something is. We learned about the two ways to record temperature- in degrees Celcius and degrees Farenheit. Then we worked in groups to read the thermometers. Good work!
