# Practical maths fun!

  ![Image of Practical maths fun!](https://files.schudio.com/alston-moor-federation-2/images/blog/bobby.PNG)  22 March 2024   [Bev Brown](https://alstonmoorfederation.org.uk/blog/author/bbrown)   [Cross Fell's Learning](https://alstonmoorfederation.org.uk/blog/category/cross-fell-s-learning)

Some more practical maths fun in our outdoor area this morning learning about capacity and developing our use of the vocabulary full, half full and empty- we are so very lucky to have such a fantastic space that we can use to extend our maths learning beyond the classroom.

We are hoping to further develop this space and take our learning outside more in the coming weeks as well as continuing our gardening journey in this space so please keep checking back for updates :-)
