I think the students really enjoyed reading their three clues to their classmates and then revealing what 100 items they had put into their bottles. It was a great activity to introduce the concept of volume, and the students were intrigued with what 100 of each item looked like!
Corduroy is a lovely little bear and the students are working on using him and his stories as the backdrops of their efforts to really describe a character or a setting. It has been hard work for them, but they are proud of their efforts.
