Comparing heights

Friday 02 March 2018

Today in maths, we had fun finding out how tall we are! We practised saying our height in different ways. For example:

“I am 1m and 26cm tall. I am 126cm tall,” said Jasraj.

Isabella said, “I am 1m 46cm or 146cm tall.”

We linked our measuring back to the equivalent lengths we looked at earlier in the week.

For example, 500cm is the same as “5m,” said Leo, and “5000mm,” said Jemima. (I really liked that answer.)

Here are some photos of us measuring our heights, making sure the tape measure started at the very bottom of our heels or the very top of our heads.
