Maths: metres and centimetres

We looked again at estimating length. We chose the most sensible estimates for different lengths. After that we thought about what measuring tools we would use to measure small things and larger things.

We thought of a list of objects that could be measured in centimetres, and another list that could be measured in metres. Metres are used for larger objects.

At home please do the measuring sheet I gave you for homework. Measure the straight lines with your ruler. For the two bendy lines, you will need to use a piece of string, and then measure the string using your ruler. Have fun doing your homework.
