Measuring with Love: TK Bunnies Explore Non-Standard Measurement
This week, our TK Bunnies had a blast exploring non-standard measurement in a fun and engaging way! We started by reading The Love Monster by Rachel Bright, a sweet story that inspired us to create our own Love Monsters. Each Bunny designed a unique monster, and then we used our math skills to measure them using connecting cubes.
This activity supported multiple early math concepts, including:
💗 One-to-one correspondence
💗 Counting in the correct order
💗 Comparing lengths by size
After measuring, the learning didn't stop! One of the Bunnies made an excellent connection to another book we read, The Day It Rained Hearts by Felicia Bond. Inspired by the story, we played a game using foam hearts and giant dice. Each Bunny rolled the dice, counted the number, and then either "rained" or tossed the many foam hearts into a bucket.
It was a joyful, hands-on way to build number sense while fostering creativity and collaboration. Our Bunnies are growing their math skills and making meaningful connections between stories and play. Learning through love, laughter, and exploration—what could be better? 💕
Make Math Fun!
