Social Studies, Science, Math, and ... banana leaves?

Our class joined Mrs. Miller's class for a fun activity. We are reviewing standard and non-standard units of measure, along with estimating. We worked in teams to measure the hallways, each other, the distance from the chapel to the church and more, using banana leaves! Afterwards, we had group discussions to compare the data we collected. Through dialogue, the students made connections to Social Studies and Science skills.
