Today in class I have been measuring different kinds of objects. I had to estimate the weight of each object that I thought it could be. After doing that I then had to weigh the objects on a kitchen scale, to see what the outcome was. When I finished weighing the objects, I managed to get one measurement correct. I found this activity very fun because I was able to do something that I haven’t done before.
