How to measure a giant dragon – Science Week

This week is science week. Our challenge is to measure a dragon.

Today we put ourselves back in fantasy times, so we didn’t have any rulers or masses. This meant that to measure our dragon we would have to be creative! We chose a range of objects (they had to be the same) and we used them to measure things around the room.

Finally we realised that the dragon might be quite large so we tried to measure something larger; the hall.

We used chairs

Cubes

And pencils

How many do you think we needed?
