What a fun and educational project Mrs. Shelton’s second-grade class had with Freddy the giant! 😊 It sounds like the students really engaged with their measurements and learned some valuable math concepts along the way. By measuring different body parts and assembling their giant, they not only exercised their creativity but also reinforced important ideas about units of measurement—like the fact that 12 inches make up a foot and 3 feet equal a yard. It's great to see kids learning in such an interactive way!
It was an exciting moment when they discovered that Freddy was 11 feet taller than one of their classmates! That hands-on experience of measuring and calculating makes math come alive and helps solidify those skills in a memorable way.
What a fantastic way to encourage teamwork and critical thinking! Keep up the great work, Mrs. Shelton and dear students! 🌟
