Volume is the amount of space that something takes up. For example, if youâve been given a box containing a present, then you could find the boxâs volume by measuring its length, its width and its height. You would then multiply the length by the width, then multiply this figure by the height.
A literacy center is a physical area (or station) designated for specific learning purposes. It is designed to provide appropriate materials to help students work independently or collaboratively (with partners or in small groups) to meet literacy goals. A literacy center can be portable, temporary or permanent.
Teachers should assess the needs of the students and let those needs dictate the learning centers. Young children learn best when they are able to make real life connections and apply the skills they are learning in the classroom.
