Year 3 measured the length of each others’ middle finger in centimetres. We then chose five children with different lengths of finger to throw a bean bag. We measured how far they threw a bean bag in metres and centimetres. Our conclusion was that the length of finger did not make a difference to the length of throw. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/4021939A-74D0-44B6-BB55-75672531FBDC.jpeg) [Year 3](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-3) [Maths](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/maths) [Science](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/science) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/01F59F55-A55A-4445-A780-98AE2FD6F109.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2022-03-14-monday-worship-forgiveness) Previous ### [Monday Worship: Forgiveness ](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2022-03-14-monday-worship-forgiveness) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/D946360F-4FB8-4FB8-A3F8-5190F5B69DD9.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2022-03-16-online-safety-upsetting-content-guide) Next ### [Online Safety: Upsetting Content Guide](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2022-03-16-online-safety-upsetting-content-guide) ### Personal Development - [News](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news) - [Events](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/events) - [Photo Gallery](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/photo-gallery-category/our-gallery) - [Calendar](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/calendar) - [School Council](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/school-council) - [Attendance](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/attendance) - [Fundraising](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/fundraising) - [Extra Curricular Clubs](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/clubs) - [Little Leaders](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/little-leaders) - [Visits and Visitors](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/visits-and-visitors) - [British Values](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/british-values) - [Protected Characteristics](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/protected-characteristics) ##### Location Knowlesly Road Darwen Lancashire BB3 2JA ##### Contact Us 01254 702996 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/stbarnabasce/) - [X](https://twitter.com/stbarnabasce) © Copyright 2021–2026 St Barnabas Primary School, A Church of England Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
