During this outdoor lesson, children explore using scales in a range of contexts to build fluency in their use of number lines and to explore how to use scales to measure mass and volume.
The main activity in this outdoor lesson is to explore the mass of objects and find equivalent masses using grams and kilograms. This active and engaging lesson will allow children to deepen their understanding of mass and reading scales.
In this outdoor lesson, children carry out a scavenger hunt and then compare the mass of objects, building fluency in measuring mass while recapping their addition and subtraction knowledge in a real-life context.
In this hands-on outdoor lesson, children carry out a range of activities allowing them to explore the difference between capacity and volume, and using millilitres and litres for measuring both.
Using outdoor learning to consolidate and deepen children’s understanding of comparing capacities and adding and subtracting volumes, this outdoor lesson provides a range of active strategies to engage all learners in a fun, and meaningful way.
