Gallon Man activity in 3rd grade: Math Activity

Cognitive Hooks

Other memories Associated with Gallon Man

The first day my best friend came back to class after cancer treatments

Non-Declarative Memory

Procedural Memory: Practice with the skills that have been learned so they become efficient.

Knowing the facts about measurements have become so natural that I feel like I have always known how to do it.

With continuing practice I now know how many cups are in a gallon, how many cups are in pint, etc. without having to resite the gallon man

When I think of when I first starting learning these skills, I think of when I did the art activity and the story/song associated with it.

Recontruction errors

Singing the tune to "head, shoulders, knees, and tones" and my friend saying that the measurement song actually goes to "dry bones"

Also learned about measurements in fourth grade, so the gallon man could have been done in fourth grade instead of third grade

Friend had multiple cancer treatments until the end of elementary school so perhaps he came back in 4-6th grade when we doing an art activity instead of 3rd grade

Reading King Gallon Man

We then cut up pieces of paper and used glue to put together the gallon man

Boys learning: hands on activity, able to stand up and move around to get paper, glue, scissors, etc.

Girls learning: able to do an individual activity, social interaction with the teacher as she was demonstrating how to do the activity

Singing "Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes" but with Gallons, Quarts, Pints, & Cups

Senses Assocated with the memory

Sight

My sight started going bad when I was in third around the time we did the gallon man activity.

Smell

Taste

I remember boys putting glue in their mouth and every time I use white craft glue, I think of those boys eating the glue and I can taste what the glue would taste like.

The smell of pumpkin because we were doing our halloween party after.
