This week we have been continuing our work on measurement, particularly focusing on volume. We thought it would be great if the children could visualise how much space a cubic metre really takes up.
We made the cube using metre rulers and then the children made predictions as to how many of them would be able to fit inside. With estimates of around 4 or 5, they were quite surprised when we were able to fit 9!
What a great idea! It looks like so much fun as well!
ReplyDeleteIt always surprises me how big a cubic meter really is! That looks like a fun task too :)
