Magnificent Measurement

This term our class is learning all about Measurement and converting measurements. We will be looking at LengthMassVolume and Capacity.

At the start of the term Mrs S asked us what is length? Length is measuring how long an object is, was our reply! To measure length we use the units millimeters (mm), centimeters (cm), meters (m) and kilometers (km). 

Over the past few weeks we have been learning all about Length and the different units of length. We looked at things we would measure using mm, cm, m, and km. We then learnt how to convert different measurements as well as adding and taking them away from each other.

We know:

10 mm = 1 cm 
100 cm = 1 m
1000m = 1km

We have had lots of tricky problems to solve such as 45mm  = ________cm. With some ongoing practice we are going to be magic at measurement!


Working out some difficult problems!

We did it!
