• Measure, compare, add and subtract lengths (m/cm/mm), mass (kg/g) and volume/capacity (l/ml).
• Mathematics, Year 5, Measurement
• Estimate volume (for example, using 1 cm³ blocks to build cuboids (including cubes)) and capacity (for example, using water).
• Mathematics, Year 6, Measurement
• Use, read, write and convert between standard units, converting measurements from a smaller unit of measure to a larger unit, and vice versa, using decimal notation to up to 3 decimal places.
• Mathematics, Year 5, Measurement
• Convert between different units of metric measure (for example, kilometre and metre, centimetre and metre, centimetre and millimetre, gram and kilogram, litre and millilitre).
• Explore and compare liquid volumes with shaped containers, each marked for easy measurement.
• Set of measuring containers designed to help visualise and understand liquid volumes, marked in clear 100ml increments for ease of use.
• This set offers practical tools for teaching key measurement concepts in maths, focusing on liquid measurements that match curriculum requirements for Key Stage 1 and 2. By using these containers, children can learn hands-on how to measure, compare, and convert various units of volume.
• Ideal for classroom demonstrations, the containers help visualise complex concepts such as volume and capacity. Teachers can effectively explain the differences in volume between shapes and how to estimate using real-life examples.
The flexibility of the set allows for integration into different levels of learning, from basic volume comparisons in Year 3 to more advanced applications like conversion among units as outlined for Years 5 and 6, ensuring a thorough understanding of mathematical principles.
• The Geometric Litre Set is suitable for teaching measurement in KS1 and KS2.
