Measurement

This Term in Maths we are studying Measurement (length). We will be looking at the measurement units of mm, cm, m and km.

You can assist with this at home by helping your child to:
-Use measurement language such as shorter, taller and longer
-Identify which unit of measure you would use (ie What unit would you use to measure a dictionary? Cm)
-Practise measuring items with a ruler using centimetres.
