Mesurement and Millameters

On Monday we had to mesure water to make our jelley.We had to put it where the margin was because we had to do it all during the last block so we dont have to do it evey day.We had to work in groups of 3, in our group we had Emily R,me and kim.We had to figure out how much was in the cup.We had to use differnt cups because some was fat and some was skinny.We had to work it out in a group so we can help each other out if someone is stuck in our group.

Next Mrs Dunkley told us how to do milla meters.It looked very hard but when you get use to it,it gets very easy for you.But when we worked it out it acally was very hard.It was hard to do it because  people were getting the hang of it but some people didnt.
