Good Morning, Nursery.
Well done for your great Maths work yesterday.
As you enjoyed comparing objects and using size language yesterday, today we are going to explore some more measuring activities.
You can choose any of these activities to try today:
-
Can you find out who is the tallest in your home? Who is the shortest? Who is in the middle?
-
Draw around your hands or feet. Who has the smallest hands or feet? Who has the biggest? Who is in the middle?
-
Can you make longer and shorter play dough worms and snakes?
-
Can you use a spoon for measuring? Go around your home and see if things are the same size, shorter or longer than the spoon.
-
Can you make a paper chain? The chain will get longer, the more you add. You could measure by counting how many links there are altogether.
-
Can you collect lots of very little things? What other words can we use for small?
-
Can you have fun measuring things around your home using a ruler or a tape measure?
Here are some words to help you to talk about your measuring:
I am looking forward to hearing the activities that you chose and how you got on.
Love from Miss Siswick

Good morning Miss Siswick,
Daddy is the tallest, I am the smallest.
Mummy is bigger than Sophia. Mummy is smaller than daddy and daddy is bigger than mummy.
Sophia is longer than me. She is shorter than mummy.
Daddy is taller than Sophia, he is the largest.
My Hasi is super tiny. I am taller than my Hasi.
Greetings from Nicolas
I like this game because in my home I am the shortest, tallest And in the middle. ?
Good morning,
Adelaide said that daddy is the tallest, mummy in the middle and me the shortest. We drew around daddy, Adelaide and teddy’s hands. Daddy has the biggest hand, teddy the smallest and Adelaide’s hand is larger than teddy’s but smallest than daddy. One worm was smaller than the other, but the two worms are taller than the spoon. The spoon is taller than the eraser but shorter than the remote control.
We will do the rest later.
Good morning Nursery!

Hello, everyone. Fantastic measuring. I am the tallest person in the Nursery!
I am sorry that I am replying so late again but I was phoning children at home. It has been lovely to speak to so many of you this week and I am looking forward to seeing you soon.
We all agreed Daddy is the tallest! Then me and Eddie are fairly equal in height, Grace is smaller but Eric is the smallest!
We compared hand sizes and things we found in the kitchen. Grace had fun doing this task!
Well done, Grace. Eddie is getting very tall if he is as tall as Mummy. I remember him when he was as small as you!
Hello Nursery ,
Caspian said daddy is the tallest, I am the smallest and my Mum and my sister are in the middle.
Caspian having fun with the play dough and measuring things around the house.
Well done, Caspian. I am glad that you are having fun.
At the beginning, together with Ania, drew hands, later Ania colored them and said that my mum has a biggerst hand, Karolina has a middle , and Ania has a smallest, then we used a spoon to measure and we used the words.
Ania understands all the words and can use them.
Well done, Ania.
