Maths
Explore these KS1 and KS2 Learn Screens to help students develop their measurement skills. These content pieces are great as they can also be practiced during a science lesson e.g., measuring solids and liquids and then applying an equation to find a chemical reaction. Do take a look!

Scaly Scales: #35581 – Order and compare measurements using words and symbols.
KS2
Equation Invasion: 37511 – A Learn Screen to introduce finding the different combinations of two variables which make an equation true. Includes some real-life examples involving measure.

Science
Did you know you can also use this KS2 Learn Screen as an introduction to a maths lesson? Why not encourage students to measure the distance of shadows to help support their maths knowledge and then predict the distance the shadow will grow depending on the position of the sun (perfect for a bit of science investigation!).
Shadow Patterns: #35567 – An introduction to finding patterns in the way that the size of shadows change as a result of the Sun’s movement.
