# Year 2 - Measuring and ordering lengths

  ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_3717.png)   22 April 2025

This week, Year 2 have continued their work on length and height. We have been measuring various objects and comparing them using key vocabulary such as longer, shorter and taller. We have then been ordering different lengths. This can be tricky when we have to order centimetres and metres in the same sequence. In our next lessons, we will be calculating and problem solving  using different lengths.
