Units of Measurement – Length

Kia orana! This week I am learning about measurements, where I learn how to accurately measure length and convert between units. As I went through the Google Slides, I learnt that a pencil isn’t measured in millimetres (smallest unit) it is measured in centimetres (second smallest unit).

Though, there was something that was challenging and that is converting some of these measurements by division! I even need to work it out on paper to be honest. But that is just part of learning anyways 🙂

2. Measuring Liquid Volume: Millilitres and Litres


Kia ora! Here’s a second measurement task for maths, as you can see it’s about two metric units: “Millilitres and litres”. This is just like the first maths task but it’s about millilitres and litres.

As I go through to slide 4 – 5, I had to drag which item would be measured using millilitres. Super easy as millilitres are about 20 drops of water!

Next would be sorting some objects into the correct unit, then shading the best unit of these measurements. After that, it would be estimating capacity and match the container with the best estimate too.

Last but not least, is a volume scavenger hunt which basically means look for some random objects that are measured for millilitres and litres. But Mr. Moran (my teacher) said that we can also look around the classroom as well. If there’s any errors in the Google Slides. Just comment.

1. Measuring Length: Centimetres & Metres

Kia ora! Today I did my very first maths work. This is all about measuring length, like millimetres, centimetres, metres, and kilometres.

Firstly, we had to drag some pictures to which item that would be measured by. I think each slide with different pictures were easy, but this is only 1 out of 2 more works left.

Secondly, it’s just like the first one but we had to drag a lot of pictures to centimetres or metres. The pictures are quite easy as well. So I think my maths group would get this correct.

Next, I had to determine the best unit of measurement by dragging the rectangle box to highlight the correct unit! Again, easy as usual.

Lastly, I to determine the best estimate. Just by guessing how long the thing is! And as I moved to the next slide, I now need to find the length to the nearest centimetre of the object!
