This week has been maths week at St. Clement’s.
We took part in a workshop by Professor Brainwave who worked with us to do lots of problem solving with shapes.
Year 2 have also been focusing on measuring length and weight.
We have learned how to use meters (m) and centimeters (cm) to measure length. We used tape measures to measure how tall we are and check who was the tallest and smallest!
Then we used scales to measure out the correct weights of dog food. We had to measure them using grams (g) and kilograms (kg). We had lots of opportunities do use our problem solving skills to make sure there would be enough dog food to last all week. Lastly we then compared the weights of different dogs, spotting which was the heaviest and which was the lightest.
