Paper Airplanes in Math!?!?

In our math classes we have been focusing on measurement.  Lately, we have measured using several different units such as centimeters, inches, feet, yards are  meters.  We have been working hard with our common core math standards and decided to have a little more fun while we learned more about measuring.  Each  student made their own paper airplane and we headed to the auditorium for one day and then outside on the playground the next day to finish up our activity.  Each student threw their airplane 3 times and measured each throw using yards.  After all measurements were made students rotated to partners three different  times comparing measurements.  The Second Graders had a blast learning today!
