🌈 This week in Year 2, our budding mathematicians are getting hands-on with measuring height and length using rulers and metre sticks! 📐✨

It’s fantastic to see the students develop their skills in measuring and comparing lengths while engaging in fun activities that bring maths to life! From measuring their friends to exploring classroom objects, they are discovering just how important maths is in our everyday lives.

Don’t forget to ask your child what they have been measuring at school and if you have time try out the lessons at home! 🏠📏
