This week in maths we have been learning about capacity. We have been busy measuring the space inside of boxes and containers. We measured how many scoops of rice it took to fill containers and how many blocks could fit inside boxes.

The Great Fish Tank Experiment!
 |  |
Yesterday we filled a fish tank. First we guessed. I guessed 7 litres. Next we started. After that we had another guess. I guessed 10. Finally we got 12 and a half of total of the fish tank. I liked filling the fish tank.

On Thursday we had a fish tank experiment. We had to fill a fish tank with water. We all had a turn of putting some water in. The bucket was 1 litre. Ruby thought we were doing science.

On Thursday in maths the class needed to fill a fish tank with green food dye water. But first we had to guess how many litres filled the fish tank. And the answer was twelve and a half.
