This term we have had a big focus on Measurement as a part of our Maths investigations. During last week we were measuring the mass of different objects. We estimated, measured and calculated the difference between our estimations and measurements. It was interesting to see how close our estimates were of household items.

We measured the mass of a carrot, sweet potato, a jar of vegemite, an orange, a coffee mug, an onion – just to name a few. We loved our investigations because they were hands-on and involved lots of Maths skills.
