We are a Masterpiece!

Today in math we related area to our bodies, more specifically our hands! We traced our hands onto graph paper and cut them out and then counted the squares that our hands took up. We found out how large our hands are in square centimeters. We then put the data into a spreadsheet to compare hand sizes with our classmates! You can see our data by clicking the link below!

Our Class graph of hand sizes



As an entire third grade, we colored our hands and created a flower for the hallway. It turned out awesome! It says: We are all unique and beautiful, but together we are a MASTERPIECE! :)

  2. Thanks! He was so excited to help! He took it upon himself to make the sun because he said our flower wouldn't grow without it!
