What is the Capacity Posters: Full, Half Full, Empty?
⌄
Five pages after the cover. Four display posters show a cup that is full, half full, empty, and nearly full or nearly empty, each with a short explanation. The last page, How Full Is It?, shows 6 containers, jug, glass, bottle, bowl, bucket and mug, with full, half full or empty to circle. The answer key shows the circled words.
Can I use the Capacity Posters: Full, Half Full, Empty at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for Preschool to 1st Grade math displays, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.
How many Preschool to 1st Grade capacity resources are there?
⌄
1 printable resource, free to preview. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are capacity resources for?
⌄
These are written for Preschool to 1st Grade students, roughly ages 4-7. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.
Can I use these capacity resources for homeschool?
⌄
Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a Preschool to 1st Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
