P4 and P5 have been learning about ‘Measure’ over the past few weeks. Today they went outside to look for things that they could measure. P4 were using non -standard units to measure. They used a sting that was one metre long. They had to find and measure items that were one metre, less than a metre and greater than a metre.

P5 children were using metre sticks and rulers to measure items to the nearest centimetre and millimetre. Before they started their precise measuring they used the outdoor classroom to record their estimates.
