S1 Matisse learn about Volume and Capacity

For the past few weeks S1Matisse have been learning all about volume and capacity.  We have been measuring the volume and capacity of a variety of containers using water and other objects found in the classroom.  This week we ventured outside to fill containers to different levels using water. We had to decide which containers were full, nearly full, half full and empty.  We also used our bodies to represent the levels in the containers.  Check out our gallery below!

Measuring Length in 1Base

In 1Base we have been measuring the length of many objects around our school.

We decided that using centimetres and metres was the best way to measure because it was quicker, easier and everybody knows what your measurement means
