"JACK AND JILL-- MEASURING WITH WATER"

Using 3 different-sized pails (small, medium, large), water, and a 1-cup measuring cup, we did a measuring activity.  For each different-sized pail, children made a guess as to how many cups of water would fill the bucket.  Using number stickers, children indicated their guess on their paper (see photo below).  After measuring the water, children would then use a number sticker to indicate how many cups of water it actually took to fill the pail.
