Over the past few weeks lots of our children have been learning about measuring weight.

We have been learning how to use and read digital and analogue scales using grams and kilograms.

We have discussed the language of heavy, heavier, heaviest, light, lighter, lightest and equal.

We have worked together to match weights to objects and order them, lightest to heaviest.

We then developed our estimating skills, recording our guesses and the actual weight using the abbreviations g and kg.

Through practice, our estimating became increasingly more accurate.
