This unit provides opportunities for pupils to apply their developing knowledge of 3-digit numbers in the context of mass and capacity. They will deepen their understanding of the concepts of volume and capacity with practical activities and record results in tables. Reading scales marked in different intervals allows pupils to apply counting in steps of different sizes which will support both measure and statistics work in the future.

  1. Become familiar with scales with different intervals when measuring in grams
  2. Measure the mass of objects using grams
  3. Measure mass in whole kilograms and grams
  4. Understanding capacity and volume
  5. Measuring the volume of liquids using millilitres.
  6. Measure volume in whole litres and millilitres
  7. Comparing and estimating mass and volume
  8. Estimate then measure mass and volume and record in a table
  9. Solve problems involving mass
  10. Solve problems involving volume
