Do You Want to Build a Snowman?

Do you want to build a snowman?







I am not above copying a great idea!  Harvest Elementary posted this challenge to their students.  I am issuing the same challenge to our students.



Math Snow Challenge



West Madison students, after the snow has finished falling and it is beautiful and white.  I want you to build a snowman OR make a snow angel.  Decorate it and take a picture of it.  Post it to #wldcatsroar on twitter.  Oh...you aren't finished yet, use measuring tape to locate the following:

1.  How many feet tall is it?

2.  How wide or round is it?

3.  Covert the feet to inches for length and width.  (K-3 you can get help from mom and dad).

4.  Locate the circumference of the bottom of the snowman.



Don't forget to write all this down.  Show your work and share it with your teacher, if you want.  It isn't required. Just have fun, plus learn while you do it. :)
