Last week, the Year 6 students were busy with an outdoors activity used to refine their skills in measuring lockers, mesh, and the size of the locker building. This activity was so engaging that the students continued working inside the classroom to calculate the perimeter and area.

This activity highlighted to the students how Mathematics can be used regulalry. Students were excited to check if they all got the same measurements and a general class discussion ended the successful double lesson.
The next topic will be understanding and measuring the volume of containers to familiarise students on how to calculate the capacity of different objects.
