Preschool teachers pave the road for a deeper comprehension of mathematical understanding (manipulation of concepts rather than memorization). It is our goal to prepare each of our students for success in every area of mathematics. There are five fields into which we group our Math Standards: Number Sense, Geometry, Measurement, Sorting and Patterning, and Problem Solving.
This blog entry will cover the Academic Standards that fall under the Measurement category.

Measurement
Comparing Sizes - Comparing the size of two objects according to length, weight, or volume. The sand and water tables are an excellent place for kids to experiment with volume.
Ordering Objects by Size - Ordering objects from largest to smallest (or smallest to largest) according to length, weight or volume.
Measuring Objects Using Non-Standard Units - Using chain links, cubes, blocks, paperclips or other non-standard units to measure the length, weight or volume of an object.
Measurement is just one small part of preschool mathematics. We have broken Measurement into nine standards:
Comparing Length
Comparing Weight
Comparing Volume
Ordering Objects by Length
Ordering Objects by Weight
Ordering Objects by Volume
Using Non-Standard Units to Measure Length
Using Non-Standard Units to Measure Weight
Using Non-Standard Units to Measure Volume
In our classroom, each lesson, game or classroom material has been intentionally planned and placed in the room to fulfill our Academic Content Standards.
