World Environment Day! 5th June 2013

Wednesday 5th June is World Environment Day!

 

This year the theme is Think.Eat.Save and we had an assembly today to think about how we can waste less food and look after our environment by encouraging our grown ups to buy locally produced food and farm shops etc.

 

Here is a short video informing us a little about it...

 

You can find out a bit more about it by checking out this website http://www.unep.org/wed/theme/

 

Let me now any ideas you come up with and what you do with your family to Think.Eat.Save.

Volume, Capacity and Measuring

Next week in maths we are going to be learning about measuring.
We will be working outside in the playground measuring with metre sticks, trundle wheels and tape measures.

We will be working inside measuring volume and capacity with a range of standard and non-standard containers.

We will also be weighing objects using scales and recording the weight of them to compare.

To be able to measure accurately, we need to understand how to read various scales and units of measure. This will be the focus of our activities this week.

Here are some games you can try to get your brain working....
