We have been learning all about measurement in math class recently. After the boys and girls learned about capacity in both the metric and customary systems, they were given the task to write a recipe for cookies. All of the correct measurements were given to the students; however, they were given using the metric system and they were not placed in the recipe. Once they decided where each measurement belonged in the recipe, they then had to convert the measurements to the customary system. They were pretty close with their measurements, but they did learn that baking the cookies for 15 minutes at 250 degrees was not quite enough!
