This term, measurement is our focus for maths in the New Entrant Pod. We have started out learning about height. We introduced the new vocabulary of short, medium and tall. We compared different objects in the classroom and had a go at putting ourselves into height order.
Our classroom has a height chart on the cloak bay door. We each wrote our name on a white sticker to mark our height on the chart. This is a visual way for the children to see how tall they are. We made comparisons by asking 'who is taller?' and 'who is shorter?' This lead into a good conversation of how our height does not measure our age.
