Today as part of our unit we explored measuring with non standard units . We talked about what non standard means first.
We watched a short clip about how to measure with non standard units .
We learnt that you have to have your materials lined up in a straight line, touching end to end and to make sure our measuring tools are the same size.
After that we were put into learning buddies and off we went to measure our buddies !
It was great to see lots of reflection along the way with some students having to change their ideas a couple of times to ensure their measurements were as accurate as possible .
