Measurement resources

Students use time calculations to fill in missing data on a bus timetable, and answer questions from the timetable.

For this NEMP task students perform a range of practical measuring tasks including calculations involving time and selection of appropriate units of measuring.

Students convert millilitres to litres and vice versa when working out quantities of bottles and glasses of fizzy drink for a party.

Students construct a time line by selecting the best analogue time for a range of common daily activities.

Students order litre and millilitre capacities from smallest to largest, compare given capacities and explain how they know whether one is larger/smaller or the same.

This practical task requires students to use a 1 metre measure to estimate the dimensions of a room, and then calculate the volume of the room.

Students select a true statement about the area of three shapes on a grid.

Students calculate the total area of a deck and a deck with an extension.

Students calculate the shapes with the largest and smallest perimeter and identify a relationship between the features of a shape and the perimeter.
