Measurement Structured Overview

I can do's 

Achieve

· Use a rule, tape measure, scales, thermometer, measuring cylinder and read them accurately

· Use km, m, cm, mm, m2, cm2, mm2 L, mL, kg, g and ˚C sensibly in my measurements

· Find the perimeter of a shape (triangles, rectangles or combinations of these)

· Find the circumference of a circle

· Find areas including surface area (triangles, rectangles, cuboids, or combinations of these, or cylinders and triangular prisms)

· Find volumes (cuboids, cylinders and triangular prisms)

· Solve problems involving capacity (mL and L)

· Solve problems involving time using both 12 and 24 hour measure

 

Merit

· Find areas of composite objects

· Give the limits of accuracy for measurements taken

· Choose the correct formula for my calculations

· Draw a diagram of a measurement problem given in words

· Convert between m2 and Ha and cm3 and L

· Solve problems about rates e.g. km / hr

· Read and understand scales on measuring tools

· Estimate, lengths, mass, area, volumes, times and temperatures.

 

Excellence

  • Choose a sensible model and solve a problem where the model may not necessarily fit exactly

  • Give reasons for my choice of model

  • Give reasons why my model may give errors in the result

  • Solve problems involving several calculations
