What’s the length?
Learning Intention: We are learning to measure the length of objects in centimetres.
Success Criteria: I can use a 30 cm ruler to measure items within class.
I can use a trundle wheel to measure lines and shapes in the playground.
I can accurately read and record the length of an object.
Over the last week in P4/3, we have been learning how to measure length in centimetres within Maths. We started off measuring objects within the classroom such as our jotters, pencils, rubbers, chair legs, shoes and water bottles. We then went into the playground and used trundle wheels and metre sticks to measure lines, shapes and objects such as the basketball net, the shed, the stage and the ground shapes.
We worked in pairs and recorded our measurements on paper using clip boards- it was great fun!
“The basketball net was approximately 320 cm,” Jamie Hardie.
“The stage was approximately 200 cm in length”, Kuba Kopacz.
“The gutter was around 340 cm in length. I measured it using the trundle wheel” Ryan Connor.
“The bench was 4 spins of the trundle wheel so that would be 4 m, which is 400 cm” Aiden Hardie.
We loved measuring objects and doing some Maths outside- we looked forward to doing it again!
