Cooperative groups rotate from station to station. This activity may be planned during a unit on pumpkins. I usually plan it toward the end of my unit on pumpkins in late October. Materials: A student record sheet on which information from each task is recorded5 large sheets of paper-I use bulletin board paper cut to about 4′ lengths.
Lesson Plan: I enlist parental help at most task stations… this enables me to “float” from station to station. The class is divided into 5 groups. Each group is put at a station and we begin. Each group must work cooperatively… although it is fine for them to have different estimations, they should all find the same actual measurement numbers… At the conclusion of this circuit, we discuss results and I post the posters. This has proven to be a FAVORITE of my students. Comments: I use several “circuit” activities through the year… apples, bugs, simple machines, magnets, Mini-Metric Olympics to name.
