During our Maths lessons this week we have been learning all about temperature including what it means and how it affects us.
On Monday children brainstormed what they knew about temperature and we had some great responses including:
“Temperature is High or Low” “degrees Celsius and degrees Fahrenheit” “Temperature is a measure of how hot or cold something is”
Children were then given the opportunity to estimate the temperature of 3 cups of water – one cold, one warm and one hot. After they’d estimated the temperature they were given a thermometer to see how accurate their estimations were and these were recorded in a table which can be found in their Maths books.
Below you can see some picture of the children measuring the temperature of the water with their thermometers.
