Have your children apply their knowledge of converting between metres and centimetres through the challenges in this outdoor lesson. Children will have fun estimating and comparing measurements using chalk and will secure these skills using these two units of measure.
Combine physical movement with problem-solving to provide your children with opportunities to convert between metres and kilometres in different contexts. This outdoor lesson utilises P.E equipment and trundle wheels to engage your children.
During this outdoor lesson your children will work collaboratively to practise measuring rectilinear shapes and will go on a shape hunt to calculate perimeter. Your children will also need to apply their reasoning skills through challenge questions.
The main activity of this outdoor lesson will have your children using their knowledge of length and perimeter (using the units centimetres and metres) to solve problems and collaborate to complete a large-scale chalk creation!
