Empty or Full?

EASYTEACHING.NET

Overview:

A worksheet designed for early years students, where they identify and classify containers as either empty or full. This helps students understand basic concepts of capacity and volume in a hands-on way.

Learning Objectives:

  • Recognise and categorise containers as empty or full.
  • Develop an understanding of the concept of volume and capacity.
  • Improve fine motor skills through cutting and pasting.

How the Activity Works:

Students are given images of various containers, each holding different amounts of liquid. They cut and paste each container into one of two categories: empty or full. This activity helps students distinguish between containers with no liquid and those that are completely filled, reinforcing their understanding of volume. By engaging in this hands-on task, they build early skills in comparing different levels of capacity.
