We have been learning to measure with metres, half metres and centimetres. We've had great fun measuring things in and outside the classroom with metre sticks, metre strips, half metre strips and rulers. Here we are seen measuring different lengths of string - a challenge Mrs Scott prepared for us!
We had to estimate each length of string first in m and cm.
Then we had to accurately measure each length of string.
It was quite difficult as most of the lengths of string were longer than a metre.
We had to record our findings in two ways - in only cm and in m and cm.
We worked in pairs and measured together. We quite often had different estimations though!
