Primary 2, 3 and 4 Numeracy At The Shop

24th May 2016

We looked in the fridge and on the shelves for different objects to compare how heavy and light they were.

We recorded our findings, using both pictures and writing.

We found some of the heaviest objects were at the back of the shop. These washing powder boxes weighed more than 4 kilograms.

There were some tasty baked goods for sale.

This was a very popular section of the shop!

Crisp bags were one of the lightest objects we found in the shop.

We even got an opportunity to spend some of our pocket money in the shop. Can you guess what we bought?

Back in the classroom, we have been very busy using the balance scales to find out the weight of everyday objects.

We love using the large bucket scales, because they can hold the heaviest objects.

Great team work and turn-taking during Numeracy.

We have used both grams and kilograms to weigh objects in class.

We counted in tens to find the weight of objects, using 10 gram weights.
