Learning Outcomes
Students will:
- The student will learn to
read a Fahrenheit Thermometer.
Worksheets:
- Draw 8 thermometers, minus the red liquid part of the thermometer, which the students
have to shade in using colouring leads or crayons. At the bottom of each thermometer,
indicate the following temperatures for the students to shade: 500F, 700F, 450F, 850F,
600F, 750F, 800F, and 400F.
- Design a bar graph for the 8 temperatures in Activity One. Side of bar graph is labelled
"Temperatures" and calibrated 30 - 900F. The bottom of the graph is labelled "Readings" with
each of the 8 readings indicated as follows: 500F, 700F, 450F, 850F, 600F, 750F, 800F, 400F.
Also, include 2 vertical lines for each reading so that the students will follow a shading
pattern similar to what they do with the thermometer worksheet.
Activity
Activity One:
The students are given a worksheet containing 8 thermometers with temperatures
indicated below each one. They have to use colouring leads or crayons to shade
in the indicated temperature on each thermometer.
Activity Two: The students are given a worksheet containing a bar graph where, once again,
they use their colouring leads or crayons to shade in the indicated temperature
from Activity One.
Assessment Tips from Old Tom
the Turtle
Circulate and observe as each child completes the
Reading a Fahrenheit Thermometer Worksheets.
Evaluate each child's knowledge of Reading a Fahrenheit Thermometer by asking questions
of the student and by marking the worksheet.
