Fun With Measuring
 How Much Is Too Much?

Beginner

While playing with water, pour it into different measuring containers (cups, bowls, plastic Tupperware). 

Tip: Use words like: more, less, the same, empty, and full to explain and compare the water and cups you are using.

​

Intermediate

While playing with water, use different measuring containers to compare three or more containers and discuss which holds more, less, or the same water.

Tip: Does the shape make a difference in how much water it will hold (will the tall container hold the same amount as the wide container)?

​

Experienced

While playing with water, use 3 or more different sized containers and together take turns guessing which holds more, less, or the same amount of water.

Tip: Determine the answer using measuring cups.
