Exploring capacity, containers and flow in P2!

6th Dec 2024

This week, Mrs Kearney's P2 pupils had a splash-tastic time exploring capacity and flow at the water tray!

Using jugs, bottles, funnels, and measuring cups, the children experimented with:

  • Filling and emptying containers.
  • Comparing which held the most or least water.
  • Learning key words like fullhalf-fullempty, and overflowing.

The water tray became a hub of creativity and teamwork as pupils tested their ideas and worked together to pour, transfer, and measure water.
