Estimating by Celeste



WALT use non standard to find the area for the shape. Mrs Richardson told us to go outside to and draw a shape to see how many students could fit in the area of the by estimating how many people could fit in the area.I know that I have achieved this by estimating the area of my shape and checking to see if that was right. 
We were wrong we estimated that 5 students could fit in the area of the shape but it was 6 students that could fit in the area. This is my group sorting out how much students could fit.

A non standard unit of measure by Vine



WALT use  non-standard measures to find the area of a shape

I know that I can do this because the photos show my group finding out the area of our shape.







In this photo we made a shape and made an estimation of how many people could fit sitting inside the shape. We were trying to find out the area of our shape using our body. This is a non standard unit of measure. A non standard unit of measure is your body.






 








In this photo we lay down inside the shape
and see how much people who can fit inside the shape. In my group we decided if the
shape could fit 5 people but we were wrong it was 7 people.

Too Many Books by Kevin

WALT create our own estimation, measure them, then compare them.

I know I have learned this by making an estimation and checking how many books lay flat on the the ground, also putting a picture. My digital object how many books fit in the area on the mat.

This picture shows how many book lay on the mat?

Non-standard units of measure by Gabby

WALT - use non-standard measures to find the area of the shape.
Today, Room 5 were learning about non-standard units of measure. I know I have learnt about non standard units of measure because our shape was  the same shape like the other shapes but our body wasn't the same sizes. This is called an area.


In this photo we made a shape and an estimation of how many students could fit sitting down inside the shape. We were trying to find out the area of our shape using ourselves. This is a non-standard unit of measure. A non-standard unit is the same objects but not the same sizes.                                        

In this photo we put ourselves inside  the shape. Our estimation was three,  but our estimation was wrong. The right estimation was eight. Only eight students  students could fit inside the shape.
