    Doing What Works

A fourth-grade teacher asks students to help solve his problem of measuring 1-1/2 cups without either a 1-cup or a 1/2-cup measuring cup, and instead with the use of many other size measuring cups. Students write number sentences to describe the results of their measurement exploration.
