Mr. Gallon and Easter Eggs

A few weeks ago, we learned all about capacity (how many cups are in a gallon, quart and pint). To help us learn about it, we made Mr. Gallon. Then we sang a song that helped us as it. The song goes like this (sung to 'Dem Bones):
4 quarts equal a gallon
4 quarts equal a gallon
4 quarts equal a gallon
So roll baby roll,
Boom, boom boom

8 pints equal a gallon
8 pints equal a gallon
8 pints equal a gallon
So roll baby roll,
Boom, boom, boom

16 cups equal a gallon
16 cups equal a gallon
16 cups equal a gallon
So roll baby roll,
Boom, boom, boom





Then for Easter, we made paper Easter eggs. The students decorated their eggs so uniquely! They turned out great and very festive! :)
