Education through measurement

Hello mates! Today I want to show you an App I think is useful to use in class with the biggest students of Primary Education. The App's name is Metric Conversion and you can use it to transform an unit in other different, just like learn about new units of measurement, bigger or smaller. We could plan an exercises battery using this App because I think students could learn a lot using new technologies. Here you can find the  link  to download it to Android systems.

Hello again mates! I want to show you a video about how to revise how to measure with the smallest courses of primary educacion. I think in mathematics, we have to revise all the contents, specially with little students because, this is one of the best ideas to get the students learn perfectly. In this case, the teacher revise the measurement in an active way and later, students with their materials, measure some things by their own. It is important to give the students the freedom to do the activities because it is the best way to learn something and never forget it. Here you can find the  link .

Hello mates! Today I want to talk about something I think is a dilemma to all of us. I refer to text books. Are important in class? Are unnecessary? Are indispensable? What is the most correct adjective to mark the book? Well, in my opinion any of them. I think both radical thoughs are not good. We have to think they are our friends, not a simple leafs combination that make the students get a less academic efficiency, which think the majority of teachers. When I am in a classroom, I will use the text book, at least as a guide to myself, because in this you can see the contents students need to pass a particular course. In one hand, if you decide to carry out your classes without any book, you probably could use it at the end of each unit, for example, to reinforce the contents given, or to catch examples to do any exam (if you decide to test the students). In a particular situation I saw when I was in my practices, my teacher did not use any book. A day, my teacher could not ...

Hello mates! Weight is important in School too, so student must learn it in the most dynamic way. For this, I have thought that students can see a video about this and they can learn what is this. Here you can see the  LINK  to the video. Later, we can do two types of activities: - In the first one, students are going to do a cake. For this, they must weigh all the ingredients the cake needs nad later cook it. They will study the small units of weight with this activity. - Later, students will weigh and measure themselves and later calculate the BMI (body-mass index) to discover if their bodies are compensated. In this way, students can study the bigger units of weight.

Hello mates! I want to show you a webpage in which you can find different activities about measurement adapted to all the cycles of Primary Education. To play online is a good resource in mathematics because sometimes students think it is difficult or boring, so with this types of resources, students can realise that it is not true, mathematics is a very important and interesting subject. Here you have the  LINK .
