Description

Here's a fun classroom display that is great for a measurement lesson AND a fun Back to School activity! Two birds, one stone!

Use a piece of string to measure the height of each of your students and attach it to their rainbow, with a large range of diverse characters to choose from (including Pevan & Sarah themselves!). Students can then write their name and decorate their rainbow ready for a colourful display in the classroom.

Are we missing your specific school dates? Send us a message and we'll create a customised option just for you!

✅️ Single height rainbow - just attach one piece of string! Perfect for a measurement activity at any time of the year.

✅️ Measurement rainbow - use blocks, hands, shoes, rulers or any kind of uniform measurement units to measure and record students' heights for an extension activity.

✅️ Each option features 14 diverse characters, Pevan & Sarah or blank rainbows for students to choose from.

This resource pairs perfectly with Pevan & Sarah's music video, ‘Long and Short’ (click to see a preview!). Sign up to Cub Club to access the video, along with this resource and hundreds of other educational videos, songs and printables, made for teachers, by teachers.
