What Can You Create?

Using Bloom's Taxonomy, this activity will help your students explore their creative side when it comes to measurement.  All you need are some rulers  to allow your students to create anything with this exercise.  Simply instruct your students to measure out the exact length that is listed on the sheet.  Then, have them to think about what object/drawing they can create from that specific length.  I have found that it is easiest to introduce this activity during carpet time in order to provide students with an example of what you expect.  I have also used this in a small group setting where I can guide their interaction.  Either way, this activity will spark imagination in your students and reach those higher-level learners in your classroom.
