"My students loved this because they could visualize amounts poured into cups, containers, etc. Perfect!"

Description

These activities allow children to show what they know about capacity.
In the first activity, students will order various objects from most to least capacity. In the second activity, students will order jars of the same shape from most to least capacity. Color versions are also provided if teachers would like to laminate for center use.

In the final activity students will compare sets of two objects on a shelf. They will colour the objects with the larger capacities blue, and those with the smaller capacities red.

ALL the pages were used by my students to extend our math lesson. Unfortunately, our curriculum doesn't offer students independent practice so these were fantastic! Thank you for sharing these with us!
