Pbs Kids Afterschool Adventure!: Operation: Animal Measurement Activity Plan

Curated by ACT

Animal Fun is here! In this week's adventure, Animal Measurement, children will explore measurement with the help of hermit crabs (investigating size correspondence by matching a hermit crab to its appropriate shell), beavers (visual comparison to estimate length to make its log home), monkeys, giraffes (nonstandard measurement), and a host of other animal friends including dinosaurs (comparing distances). Each section of this weeklong adventure is introduced by a video clip or online game that encourages children to explore math concepts and skills related to measurement.
