Engaging ways to enhance children’s understanding of measurement
Event Information
About this event
Measurement comprises an important set of concepts that are fundamental for students to competently navigate and work with objects and structures within their physical environment. Despite their importance, these concepts are difficult for students to grasp.
This workshop will explore practical and engaging activities that will support students’ concepts of measurement within the context of measuring length. This workshop will explore measurement concepts across Levels 1 to 4 of the New Zealand Curriculum.
This webinar is designed to support school teachers build practical classroom skills. We welcome beginning teachers, classroom teachers and faculty leaders to join us.
