Having fun with measurement




On Tuesday for maths we went out into the playground and drew pirate ships with chalk. We have been looking at how long a metre is, so armed with a metre ruler we set out to draw our large pirate ships. The length was 10 metres which meant that we had to use most of the concreted area within the school grounds to ensure we could fit them all in. Once we had finished drawing our ships we were able to add wheels, pirates, flag etc. It was so much fun, thank goodness the weather was nice.
