Our trip to the Museum for Measurement and Statistics

On Wednesday, with many of our wonderful parents, Room 9 walked to the Museum to see Nicky and learn about measurement.  We were introduced to 'scale' and saw many different measuring tools.  We estimated the length of things and experimented with how heavy things are.  We learned interesting facts, such as the length of our arms stretched out from finger to finger is the same as your height.

This was a great introduction to the measurement learning we will be doing at the start of next term and Nicky says we might be able to return to put what we learn into practice, using her wonderful resources.
