(3) K-3 To plan the "Blowout Bug Jamboree," an ant is used as the unit to measure other insects. A simple text makes size comparisons while charts visualize them; later, data is presented with a bar graph and a pie chart. A final gatefold shows all the insects on a "Jamboree Buggy-go-round!" A lively, approachable introduction to nonstandard measurement, comparison, and graphing.
