Lenght Maths Trail

 Last week First Class were learning all about the length of objects. In class we measured using our hands and our strides. We even used our Maths cubes to help us measure some objects. Towards  the end of the week we learnt that length is measured using metres and centimetres. We all had our own metre stick and we measured everything we could find!

We walked all around the school and estimated if things were shorter or longer than a metre. Then we used our metre stick to check if we were right.

At the end of the week, to make sure we knew what we were talking about, we went on a Length Maths Trail! We had to count the strides from the gate to the car park and even see how many children would fit in the shelter! Lucky our class had 24 because we all fit perfectly! It was great fun.
