Students answer questions about the total capacity in litres given the number of cups that fill the containers.

Students answer questions that involve calculating the capacities of different situations.

In this practical task, students estimate the capacity of two different sized containers, then check their estimates with a measuring jug.

In this practical task, students estimate, then measure, the volume of two containers using a measuring jug.

In this practical task, students first estimate, then measure, how many 500ml jars it takes to fill a 1 litre and a 3 litre container

Students calculate an exact square root and estimate approximate square roots by finding the length of the square flower bed of a given area, and give an explanation for their answers.

This task requires students to develop questions about their local geology and name possible information sources.

Task: Use understandings about heat energy and insulation to describe how adaptations help Emperor penguins survive in Antarctica. Assessment focus: adaptations for keeping warm in cold conditions.

Students explain the function of the veins, waxy layer of the upper surface of the leaf, how the shape of the leaf traps light energy and why the upper surface of the leaf is a darker green than the lower surface.

Task: Make careful observations of objects in a picture to assess the size of one of the objects.

Students demonstrate their understanding of a graph showing the relationship between the cost of different bottles of drink and the amount each bottle contains. They then explain which bottle of drink is the best value for money paid.

Answer questions about rubbish picked up on a beach, and suggest reasons why plastic is the most common rubbish.

Task: Interpret the information on a chart to provide evidence of the likely cause of oxygen deficiency. Assessment focus: interpreting data.

Students outline a test they could do to show if a substance is a metal or not.

In this practical task, students work in small groups to present a dance based on geometric concepts.

Students formulate questions about glaciers and climate change to show awareness that informed opinions are based on inter-related aspects of evidence rather than individual instances.

Students write a report on a table of data and make recommendations from their report.

Students compare the strength of drinks with different rates of drink powder per volume of water.

This comprehension task involves progressively disclosing a poem to students. It assesses their ability to infer. SJ-1-1-1998. Text provided.

A spatial pattern involving the area of a shape is represented by a table and a diagram. Students describe the rule in words and as an algebraic expression.

Task: Students place in order four beakers of copper sulphate solution from most to least concentrated. They then explain what would happen if two beakers were put together, and explain the term "concentration". Assessment focus: solutions.

Students use substitution into equations to evaluate the number of blocks and total surface areas in shapes of different heights. The stimulus can be used as a challenging task to try and derive the rules from the spatial pattern. This is classified as Patterns and Relationships.

Students construct a composite bar graph on areas of female employment in 1956 and 1996. They also answer questions interpreting and comparing the data.

Students identify an equation which expresses the volume of a cuboid and calculate the number of blocks in a different cuboid.

Students work out area, length and angles of a shape after enlargement.
