Hands-on nonstandard measurement in kindergarten and 1st grade, with 64 seasonal task cards students measure with real cubes. Students lay connecting cubes along the length line and stack a tower along the height line, then record the number. Every picture is drawn to a whole number of 2 cm cubes, so the answer keys are exact and also list the numbers for 1 cm cubes.
There are 16 task cards for each season — fall, winter, spring and summer — so the same skill comes back all year with new pictures. The measurement worksheets come in 2 levels: Level 1 records height and length, and Level 2 adds a guess first, so students learn to estimate before they measure. A How to Measure poster teaches the rules: start at the line, no gaps, no overlaps.
The set is built to run in centers and small groups. The 16 recording sheets, one for each season in each level, give every card a place to be recorded, and the answer keys for both 2 cm and 1 cm cubes make the checking exact. Which Is Longer? and Which Is Taller? compare pages, a Measure the Room hunt takes the measuring off the page, and paper cube strips are included for classes without cubes.
The pages are black and white on US Letter paper, and the listing states 67 pages. Answer keys are included. The grade range is kindergarten through 1st grade, stated the same way in the description and the listing's Highlights field.
