P4/5 Maths in Space
2nd Jun 2026
Last week we used our Maths skills to help us understand the position of the planets in our Solar System.
We converted the distance of the planets from the Sun into cm and then used rulers and meter sticks to show the different distances using chalk. We then took part in a game using our position and direction words such as 'Move North 3 steps' to race to collect all of the planets first before putting them in order!
