Measurement Madness!

In Whio class for maths we have been doing measurement. Some groups have been measuring area and perimeter, others an activity called 'size me up'. This has involved  measuring arms, feet, around our head and seeing if there were any relationships between the measurements.
We found out that your nose is the same size as your thumb, the span of your arms is the same as your height and your foot is the same size as your forearm. These are a few photos of some of us at maths, check it out!
