Why this why now
This unit highlights the need for standard units of measure and uses different contexts to introduce standard units for length, mass, capacity and temperature. Pupils estimate and measure, compare and order measurements, preparing them for applying units of measure to solve problems in various contexts in the future.
Prior knowledge requirements
- Compare and describe measures using non-standard units
- Use standard units such as litres and grams
- Estimate and measure using appropriate tools
