Capacity and volume

This week we have spent our maths time with Room 16 learning and experimenting with Capacity and Volume.  We have had a great time with our neighbours using practical activities to extend our learning.  Encourage your children to talk with you about what they have done, get them to estimate the volumes of bottles and containers you have at home, this will cement their learning from in the class.

Here are some photos of two activities we did, estimating and measuring volumes of different sized cups, and, estimating and measuring the volumes of paper baskets we had made.
