Maths, Reading & Visualisation

In reading we have been working on our comprehension strategies.  Last week we focused on visualisation - they way we can create mental images when we read to deepen our understanding of the text.  We read a short passage that explained how to measure a very tall object without having to climb it and we visualised how we would do this.

Yesterday we went out and put this knowledge into practice. Ruby and I went out to a lamp post and measured it and we got it right. Some other people got 100% they got 2.40m on the ground and 2.40m for the top. Here is Ruby and I working.
