Today, The Squares were exploring weight during Numeracy and Maths.

The children already had great prior knowledge of weight from weighing ingredients for baking and cooking at home. They enjoyed sharing their experiences!

We discussed how different items from the shopping bags felt when we held them and decided items were either heavy or light. We enjoyed sorting them into these groups as a team.

The children then ‘brought their shopping home’ into the House Corner, where the discussion of heavy and light continued as the shopping was put away.

We are looking forward to Wednesday where we will be using a two pan balance to compare the weight of different objects!
