non-standard measurment

The First Grade Butterflies were learning about non-standard units of measurement.

Using the Notability app on the iPads...
-the Butterflies imported a measurement recording sheet from our class iPad MATH shared Dropbox folder into Notability
-the Butterflies worked with a math partner to estimate measurements in non-standard units and record estimations
-the Butterflies worked with their math partner to measure the object in the non-standard units
-partners recorded their measurements using the camera capability in the Notability app
-partners inserted, resized, and organized photos into the recording sheet to document measurements

After completing, the Butterfly math partners saved the learning into each of their individual Dropbox folders (which can be accessed and viewed by each student's parents) and emailed the learning to me (teacher).

and documents with the camera
