Year 1 Measurement On-screen Activities
A great deal of fun can be had helping children to understand measurement and standard units. The language of measurement, using terms such as longest, tallest and shortest, can be introduced as children are asked to put a selection of items in order of size. At first measurement can be done using non-standard units such as hands, cubes or squares and later the centimetre is introduced.
We have a great selection of worksheets covering measurement but we have just published our first on-screen activities. They include measuring length and height using squares, finding which is the taller or which is fullest, comparing weights and measuring length using centimetres.
