Flynn and Dodly are going on a camping adventure. Watch how they measure the capacity of different containers. Which container will hold the most? 'Dodly the Adventurer' needs a container to put all his precious rocks in. Can you find a container big enough?
How do we measure how big something is? Flynn and Dodley want to see who has the bigger toy bus. Which bus is taller, wider, longer? Flynn models how to measure his bus using sticks so he can make a garage for his 'magic' bus. The Flying girl and others also do some measuring.
Selected links to a range of interactive and print resources for Measurement topics in K-6 Mathematics.
Peg and Cat show how to measure when looking for buried treasure! See how they measure using informal units and solve problems along the way.
Take two differently shaped containers, for example, a tall, skinny cylinder and a short wide one. Which one will hold more beads? The result may surprise you! It's all about capacity. Two containers with the same surface area can have very different shapes and sizes, so they can have different volumes and hold different ...
The content of this book is organised into topics including understanding units, and direct measuring.
Use this diagnostic task to assess if students know about capacity and comparing containers based on how much they hold.
Students compare the spaces within containers.
Students compare and order several shapes and objects based on length, area, volume and capacity using appropriate uniform informal units.
The focus of this activity is to encourage students to measure, order, compare and check the mass of a range of objects using hefting (holding something to test its mass) or formal units of measure.
In this animated video, Buster, Al and Ada use informal and formal units of measurement when helping to build a dog house for Prime. The mathematical focus is on comparing lengths using informal units of measurement; recognising the importance of using common units of measurement; and recognising and using centimetres. ...
This teaching guide provides a range of associated activities for each of the Mathscots episodes at Year 1. The guide contains a summary of the mathematical focus in each episode, a range of scaffolded learning experiences for before, during and after viewing each video, activities for families at home, and sets of printable ...
This activity allows students to learn about measuring by measuring attributes of irregular shapes. The use of informal units is an important step in order to develop understandings of what it looks like when measuring the attributes of length, perimeter and area.
This two-week unit develops student knowledge, understanding and skills of measurement using informal and formal units. Students are provided opportunities to estimate, measure, compare and record a variety of attributes including length, area, volume and mass using informal units; estimate, measure and record length using ...
This two-week unit develops student knowledge, skills and understanding of measurement. Students are provided opportunities to compare, order and match measurement attributes by using direct comparison and informal units; consider how the choice of measuring unit affects accuracy; explore conservation of length, area, internal ...
This sample multi–age unit explores the big idea 'what needs to be measured determines the unit of measurement'.
This two-week unit develops student knowledge, understanding and skills of measurement.
This resource provides strategies for assessing aspects of the Digital Technologies subject in the Australian Curriculum that relate to data using contexts from other learning areas and General Capabilities, including Mathematics, Numeracy and Literacy. The resource includes an assessment planner and rubric, as well as ...
In this animated video, Buster compares the different heights of puppies and Prime uses ordinal numbers to identify the order of the dogs. The mathematical focus is on comparing objects directly, by placing one object against another to determine which is longer; using language associated with measurement attributes, such ...
