For the last 2 weeks in school, the Year 2 children have been learning about measurement.
We know that a centimetre is a small measurement. We each have a 30cm ruler on our desks at school.
SFK ‘I know that 100cm is equal to 1 metre.’
We have been measuring length and height. The length of an object is how long it is and the height is how tall an object is.
We have also been measuring ourselves.
We also measured our school playground, benches and outdoor equipment.
Help at home by using the vocabulary ‘longer’ and ‘shorter’ when discussing objects within the house.
