Measurement.

This term we are looking at the different aspects of measurement, eg.. length, time, weight and capacity as well as what objects or tools we can use to measure these different aspects.
We started this week with measuring length and used non standard units such as small cubes to do the measuring. We discovered that in order to make a correct measurement of an item we needed to use the same unit and make sure we started at one end of the object and measure all the way to the other end.
