Measurement

==  We have been learning to measure using different forms of materials. == On Friday we finished off our topic of length and area by re watching a clip on how to measure using non-standard units. We had already tried using our 'ginger bread men' as Sam named them - which were actually cut outs of ourselves. We tried using these to measure things outside but it was far too windy. We then used cut outs of our hands and feet to measure then length of things in our classroom. Then to finish off we made things that were really long in our classroom and made **predictions** about how many feet or hands would fit along the things we built. We then measured, making sure we had no gaps between each hand or foot. When we had finished we thought about our predictions and whether they were close or too far off.
