OBJECTIVES:

 

*Observe and understand that the amount of water does not change when water is transferred from one container to another.

 

*Compare the capacity of different containers, and identify which can hold more and which can hold less.

 

*Measure the capacity of different containers using a given set of reference containers, and identify each container can hold as much as the correct number of referencer containers.

 

*Make a reasonable estimate of the amount of water required for different activities and verify the accuracy of their estimates.

*

Use the phrase 'same amount' to compare the capacity of different containers with similar capacities.
