back then, ms L prepared us with an experiment to do. first she told us to copy these instructions :
1.Fill in the container completely with water.
2.Pour the water from the container into the given square container.
3.Using a ruler,measure the depth of water in the square container (correct to the nearest centimetre).
4.Use your knowledge on finding the volume of the cuboid to find the capacity of the container.
after copying that, you have to draw a table in your book to show the volume in the container given. the containers are :
- plastic cup
-small plastic cup
-tube container
-small tube container
-bowl
-glass bottle
-sand measurement
-plastic jar container
-tank
This is how my group count the volume in the containers. first fill up the measuring cup with water. then pour it to the container until it's full. then you can see in the measuring cup how much it was wasted to fill up the whole container. there it is, the answer.

i think this experiment was fun. it gave us knowledge while we're having fun cos we get to play water P=.now i know that even a tall container have less volume of water than the fat container.
