Measuring Distance

Today the Ponies have experimented using marbles, cars and paint to see how far we could roll each item, using paint to track the marks and a measuring tape to learn the distance travelled. The children assessed the marbles and cars and judged which they thought would travel the farthest, the chose which one they wanted to do first and measured the marks made. Afterwards they did the same test with the remaining object and compared the results. After experimenting the children concluded that the cars travelled the farthest!
