# Easter Measuring

  ![Image of Easter Measuring ](https://files.schudio.com/stokesley-community-primary-school-2/images/blog/E70C652E-7EAD-4F69-ABD6-C5779540144A.jpeg)  6 April 2021   [Year One Blog](https://www.stokesleypa.org.uk/blog/category/year-one-blog)

Our measurement work has moved on to comparing mass and weight.  We have done lots of great learning comparing using our hands and bucket balance scales.  We have also been measuring mass using cubes and other non standard measures.  Easter was a great opportunity to use a digital scale to measure the ingredients to cook a tasty Easter treat.  We have been learning about Christians celebrating Easter and learning why the cross is an important Christian symbol. We tasted hot cross buns and then made our own hot cross bun muffins.  Delicious!
