Measurement

LI: To make estimates of lengths and areas. This week for maths we had to measure 4 items, estimate it convert it. First we had to choose 4 items to measure. For the items we had to measure it in miler metres, centre metres and metres. The items that I chose was the space button, a dictionary book, the floor ( the bench to the lino) and the white board. Before we measured the items we had to estimate the items (guess). Then we had to measure it. To measure the items I used the ruler, the metre ruler and the wheelie ruler. Once we measured the items we had to convert it. If we didn't know how to convert the items we had to use the place value house. Mr. Ogilvie showed us how to do the conversion. This maths task was kind of hard to do.
