P7 Outdoor Learning - Conversion of Units
21st Apr 2023
P7 have been making the most of the good weather and have taken their learning outside.
They have been extending their knowledge of measure by looking at conversion of units.
A 40m sprint and a standing long jump were set up in the carpark and pupils collected their results in each event.
Using the data collected, we were able to convert between measurements of length. We were also able to calculate the average of our attempts in each event. Pupils also enjoyed calculating how fast they ran in metres per second by using the equation, speed = distance ÷ time. We were able to take our metres per second times and change them to kilometres per hour. Usain Bolt's world records were in danger for a minute there!
Well done, P7!
