Ordering our bags by weight

Wednesday 24 July 2019 No comments
Today in groups of 4, using heft, we had to order our school bags from lightest to heaviest. This is just estimating.

Then we checked the weight using the scales and confirmed if our estimate/guess was correct, close or not close.











Happy Birthday Daniel

On Wednesday it was Daniel's birthday. He turned 7! We celebrated his birthday with some yummy cup cakes. Thank you Daniel!


Weight - Maths

Monday 22 July 2019 1 comment
Today we begun learning about weight for maths.

We looked at 2 parcels and had to guess which one we thought would be heavier and which one would be lighter. Most of us thought that the bigger item would be heavier due to its size. We were surprised when we held them and discovered that the smaller parcel was heavier!

We learnt that the size of the object doesn't relate to its weight.

We were given a ball of play-dough to make a cat with. Then chose a partner and had to guess which cat would be heavier. Some of us thought that because their cat was longer it would be heavier. We learnt it was actually about how much play dough we were given, not about the size or shape of our cat. We used balance scales to compare the weight of 2 objects.
