Maths time in Room 6

In weeks 1 & 2, term 3 room 6 has been learning about volume for maths.
Volume is the space inside of something. Last week we were finding out the volume of containers with water. One day we did an estimate and an investigation to find out how many teaspoons fill a cup. We found it hard trying to find out how many teaspoons of water fill a cup.  We discovered that a teaspoon holds 5 ml, a cup is 250 ml and a 1 litre milk bottle is 1000 ml. The hardest question was how many milk bottles fill a bucket?
