Measuring the temperature.

This morning we awoke to a really cold frost and used this to help us with our measuring skills in Maths. We learnt that we use a thermometer to record the temperature in degrees celcius and it is important that we know how warm or cold it is so that we wear the correct clothes.

We practiced reading the temperature on different thermometers and said that it is just like a number-line that goes up instead of across and looked at the numbers below 0 that we call negative numbers. We measure the temperature inside our class which was 20C and outside which was -3C and found that the difference between the two was a huge 23C!
