Year 3 had so much fun during Maths week!
We were very lucky to be taught some new Maths strategies by the Year 4s- we found it tricky but really good fun.
On Thursday, our Maths theme was Shape. We looked at 3 shape books and loved the way that the illustrations in the book had lots of different shapes in them.
As well as other shape related activities, we challenged ourselves to create our own shape pictures.
On Friday, our Maths focus was measurement. We read the book 'Funny Bones' for inspiration.
We carried out an investigation to see if people with longer legs could jump further. We had to use lots of different skills, including adding two measurements if the jump was over the metre ruler.
We really enjoyed carrying out the investigation and representing our data in bar charts.
We found out that it is not true because some of the people with shorter legs could jump quite far and, even though she had the longest legs, Mrs Phillips did not have the longest jump.
