Use this worksheet to support your students when measuring and comparing area using informal units. A great hands-on activity that encourages your students to use 1cm cubes to measure the area of classroom objects.
Measure and compare objects based on length, capacity and mass using appropriate uniform informal units and smaller units for accuracy when necessary
Compare and order several shapes and objects based on length, area, volume and capacity using appropriate uniform informal units
Compare masses of objects using balance scales
Describes mathematical situations and methods using everyday and some mathematical language, actions, materials, diagrams and symbols
Supports conclusions by explaining or demonstrating how answers were obtained
Measures, records, compares and estimates lengths and distances using uniform informal units, metres and centimetres
Measures, records, compares and estimates areas using uniform informal units
Uses objects, diagrams and technology to explore mathematical problems
