Year 1 started looking at money. We looked at the shape, colour and value of each coin to help us recognise and name them. We also compared the values of the coins.
Over the past two weeks, year 1 have been measuring length, mass and capacity. We’ve used non-standard measures such as cubes, paper clips and beads to measure length, compared mass using balance scales and explored how to measure capacity using different units of measure such as cups and teaspoons. We also learned how to measure
