This afternoon we had some fun with measurement. We were tasked with making a paper aeroplane and then going outside and having 2 attempts to throw it and then using a metre stick to record the distance that it flew.

The class were very quick to tell me that Skye is a pro at making paper aeroplanes, so Skye ended up leading the class on how to make the perfect areoplane – well done Skye.

We discussed how this task was linked to maths and Rajath explained that measurement was a very important maths skill and then Calum noticed that this task also involved symmetry because the plane needed to be symmetrical so that it could fly properly otherwise it would go to one side – great work Calum!
