Content
Geometric measure A
Length: Measure and compare objects using metres, centimetres and millimetres
Length: Use scaled instruments to measure and compare lengths
Length: Measure and compare objects using metres, centimetres and millimetres
- Measure and record lengths and distances using a combination of metres and centimetres
- Estimate lengths and distances using known lengths as benchmarks, in metres and centimetres and check by measuring
- Compare and order lengths and distances using metres and centimetres
- Recognise the need for a formal unit smaller than the centimetre to measure length
- Identify that there are 10 millimetres in one centimetre
- Use the millimetre as a unit to measure lengths with a ruler
- Record lengths using the abbreviation for millimetres (mm)
Length: Use scaled instruments to measure and compare lengths
- Select and use an appropriate scaled instrument to measure lengths and distances
- Select and use an appropriate unit to estimate, measure and compare lengths and distances
- Recognise the features of a three-dimensional object associated with length that can be measured
- Use the term perimeter to describe the distance around the boundary
- Estimate and measure the perimeters of quadrilaterals
- Convert between metres and centimetres, and between centimetres and millimetres
- Record lengths and distances using decimal notation to 2 decimal places
