This was a great activity for capacity! My only complaint is that the tiny cup circles were a bit time-consuming to cut out and glue. However, students really enjoyed making them, and it has driven home the concepts of capacity measures for them. Thanks!

Thanks for the constructive feedback, do you think squares would be easier? I'm going to be updating the back in summer and will keep this feedback in mind!

The description on this product clearly states it is for capacity only and provided a weeks worth of activities for my second graders last year, I felt four dollars was a fair and reasonable price. I am glad that you did enjoy the activities however. I hope your students did too! ;)

I purchased your capacity unit and think it's great.... however, why is there not a page for Exploring Capacity Units with Gallon Guy like there is for the girl... and also, why do you have 2 how much/how many sheets to go with the girl but only 1 for the guy? Just trying to put these together for my girls and guys and there is more for the girls? Please let me know.

I was just random, I included six total pages for building understanding for making conversions. All the pages are different, but I did not make equal pages for each, meaning the same amount for Gallon Guy and Gallon Girl. I hope that this helps.

Hi! I just purchased this and love it!!!!! One question though! The Gallon Gal question sheet says he or him in a few places where it should be she or her. Can that be fixed?
Thanks so much!
Thanks so much!
