In this activity, students use an included measuring strip to measure items using a uniform informal unit.
Measure the length of shapes and objects using informal units, recognising that units need to be uniform and used end-to-end
Measure and compare objects based on length, capacity and mass using appropriate uniform informal units and smaller units for accuracy when necessary
Identify which metric units are used to measure everyday items; use measurements of familiar items and known units to make estimates
Measure and compare objects using familiar metric units of length, mass and capacity, and instruments with labelled markings
Compare directly and indirectly and order objects and events using attributes of length, mass, capacity and duration, communicating reasoning
Measure and compare the lengths and capacities of pairs of objects using uniform informal units
Compare and order several shapes and objects based on length, area, volume and capacity using appropriate uniform informal units
Uses objects, diagrams and technology to explore mathematical problems
Measures, records, compares and estimates the masses of objects using uniform informal units
Measures, records, compares and estimates areas using uniform informal units
Measures, records, compares and estimates volumes and capacities using uniform informal units
Measures, records, compares and estimates lengths and distances using uniform informal units, metres and centimetres
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
Describes, compares and orders durations of events, and reads half- and quarter-hour time
Measures, records, compares and estimates lengths and distances using uniform informal units, as well as metres and centimetres
Creates and recognises halves, quarters and eighths as part measures of a whole length
Measures and compares areas using uniform informal units in rows and columns
Measures, records, compares and estimates internal volumes (capacities) and volumes using uniform informal units
Estimates, measures and compares the masses of objects using kilograms and grams
Measures, records, compares and estimates the masses of objects using uniform informal units
Represents and compares halves, quarters, thirds and fifths as lengths on a number line and their related fractions formed by halving (eighths, sixths and tenths)
Uses grid maps and directional language to locate positions and follow routes
Measures and estimates lengths in metres, centimetres and millimetres
Identifies angles and classifies them by comparing to a right angle
Compares two-dimensional shapes and describes their features
Performs transformations by combining and splitting two-dimensional shapes
Estimates, measures and compares areas using square centimetres and square metres
Makes and sketches models and nets of three-dimensional objects including prisms and pyramids
Estimates, measures and compares capacities (internal volumes) using litres, millilitres and volumes using cubic centimetres
Measure and compare the lengths, masses and capacities of pairs of objects using uniform informal units
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
