Natania_Hands On Math _Volume_2 May 11

Last time our class have a math experiment but before that Ms Lenny told us to copy the instruction in our exercise book. the instruction are :

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 the cuboid to find the capacity of the container. then we make a chart to put our information. we divide our chart into 4 which are number ( no. ), container, capacity and depth. we find the information by using water, sand, measuring cup, measuring spoon, ruler ( optional ). we can measure square tanks with ruler by measuring the height, width and length and count ( height x width x length = capacity) or pour water / sand into a container then pour it into the measuring cup.
these are the containers that we use :
- plastic cup
- bowl
- tube container
- small tube container
- sand measurement
- plastic jar container
- tank
- glass bottle
- square container

my conclusion :
- water in a small container may look a lot but if the the same amount of water is poured into a big container it may look very
little
- we can measure a tank's capacity by using ruler, liquid or sand
