  Programmes of Study:

  • choose and use appropriate standard units to estimate and measure length/height in any direction (m/cm); mass (kg/g); temperature (°C); capacity (litres/ml) to the nearest appropriate unit, using rulers, scales, thermometers and measuring vessels
  • convert between different units of measure (for example, kilometre to metre; hour to minute)
  • convert between different units of metric measure [for example, kilometre and metre; centimetre and metre; centimetre and millimetre; gram and kilogram; litre and millilitre]
  • convert between miles and kilometres
  • estimate, compare and calculate different measures, including money in pounds and pence
  • measure, compare, add and subtract: lengths (m/cm/mm); mass (kg/g); volume/capacity (l/ml)
  • solve problems involving the calculation and conversion of units of measure, using decimal notation up to 3 decimal places where appropriate
  • use all four operations to solve problems involving measure [for example, length, mass, volume, money] using decimal notation, including scaling
  • understand and use approximate equivalences between metric units and common imperial units such as inches, pounds and pints
  • use, read, write and convert between standard units, converting measurements of length, mass, volume and time from a smaller unit of measure to a larger unit, and vice versa, using decimal notation to up to 3 decimal places
