Learning about capacity doesn’t have to mean staring at flashcards or memorizing definitions—it can be a joyful, hands-on experience! In our classroom, math came to life as children explored, poured, measured, and giggled their way through water play. Here’s how our curious learners discovered the magic of how much things can hold!
- Water Play Wonders: With cups, bottles, and jugs, children poured and filled to explore what “full”, “half”, and “empty” really mean.
- Cooking with Capacity: Measuring cups turned into math tools during pretend play sessions—sprinkling in a little learning with a lot of fun!
- Learning Through Play: Each pour and scoop built real understanding—along with observation, comparison, and problem-solving skills.
By turning everyday play into exploration, our little ones didn’t just learn about capacity—they experienced it. When learning flows with joy, understanding naturally overflows.
