Stretch investigation.

How far can you stretch? That was the question we had to solve so we set straight to work finding out.

First we marked how far we could reach normally, then we stretched as far as we could and marked again. We had to measure the distance between the two marks to find out how far our stretches were. We tried it standing and also lying down. 

We had lots of fun answering this question. Mrs Kineavy thinks we didn't even realise we were doing maths!
