This weeks maths focus the class will be exploring length and height, using the language associated with comparing and measuring. They will also begin to explore capacity using the terminology ʻemptyʼ, ʻhalf fullʻ and ʻfullʼ. They compare the capacities of different containers and explore capacities through play.
Today we started ordering by length, introducing the vocabulary longest/longer and shortest/shorter.
Throughout the day the class were given the opportunity to use different objects around the room such as the play dough, the train track, the building blocks, interlocking cubes, etc to create longer and shortest lengths. A third length was then added for the children to order correctly.
