Measuring a Metre

Today we had great fun guessing how big we thought a metre was. We used our estimating skills and parts of our body to make personal benchmarks of how big a metre is.

Logan found that he measured a metre from his ankle to his shoulder.

Then we used our metre ribbons to measure different things around the school.

We worked well together and used good problem solving skills to work out how to measure large objects.

Some of us used fractions to describe how long things were!
