Dear Readers,
Here is another recipe for learning at home called Weigh Me:
This is a good skill to teach estimating.
Ask your children to guess the weight of several household objects--a wastebasket, a coat, a full glass of water. Then show children how to use a scale to weigh the objects. Next, have them estimate their own weight, as well as that of other family members, and use the scale to check their guesses.
Note: These home learning "recipes" have been tested and developed by Dr. Dorothy Rich, author of MEGASKILLS.
