Real Life Maths: Potions Lesson by @PrimaryLessons
“This is a really good way of testing out practical measuring skills in Maths lessons.
I always teach ‘measuring‘ by incorporating a Harry Potter themed Potions lesson. Pupils follow potion recipes to create potions from the Harry Potter universe, e.g. Polyjuice Potion or Skele-gro. I have a mixture of powders (cornflour), plants (herbs) and potions (water with food colouring). I then have pipettes, a range of different containers with different scales for measuring liquids, scales for measuring the plants and powders, in addition to gloves for handling the ‘poisonous’ plants, a pestle and mortar for the plants and stopwatches for timing.”
