We have been using metre sticks and tape measures to measure using metres and centimetres.
Lucy – I could jump really far. We used a metre stick to measure the distance.
Jo and Arlo – We measured around our wrists. Jo’s was 18cm.
Around Jo’s head is 52cm.
Logan – We worked together to measure.
Cara – I had to measure around Kenzie’s foot. It is 20cm.
Sarah – I had to measure the length of Finlay’s arm.
Joseph – My head is the same size as Mia’s.
Mia and Jessica – We are both 47cm.
We have been estimating and measuring using metres and centimetres. We measured the height of everyone in the class and compared them to the height of Flat Stanley.
 We are 122cm tall – the same height as Flat Stanley. |
 We are smaller than Flat Stanley. |
 We are taller than Flat Stanley. |
 Most of us are taller than Flat Stanley. |
I am the tallest in the class.
I am the smallest in the class. I am 1cm smaller than Thalia.
We visited a local farm to learn more
about what land is used for in our area.
We developed our knowledge of how
to care for animals and where food
comes from.

Primary 2 have been learning about important inventions and how they affect people and the environment.
We have been listening and watching for useful information. We have taken notes and made books for the class library about John Logie Baird and Alexander Graham Bell. We will be researching more inventors and their inventions………….
We have planned a trip to the Science Centre in April.
Primary 2 have accepted a challenge to invent something that will help fix an environmental problem. All designs, presentations and patents are due on 10th March………………………………..
