Ask your teacher to check your table and the order of your objects. 11

12 Converting Measurements Let s have a little language lesson! Centi Milli Kilo th part of a unit 1000 th part of a unit 1000 times the unit So; Centimetre 100 th of a metre. There are 100 centimetres in a metre. Millimetre 1000 th of a metre. There are 1000 millimetres in a metre. Kilometre 1000 metres. There are 1000 metres in a kilometre. This picture shows the relationship between mm, cm, m and km. Ask your teacher for a laminated length ladder and keep it near you while you work through the following examples and exercises Brisbane Youth Education & Training Centre 2013 v1.0

13 Look at the relationship between mm, cm, m and km. 10mm = 1cm 100cm = 1m 1000m = 1km You must remember those rules. Write them here: 10mm = cm 100cm = m 1000m = km How many mm in 1cm? How many cm in 1m? How many m in 1km? Remember all that work we did on multiplying and dividing by 10, 100 and 1000? We are going to use those skills now. Converting between units is always about multiplying or dividing by 10, 100 or (Convert just means change!) Watch the first 5 minutes of this video. It shows you an example of how to convert distance. 13

14 Example 1 Converting cm to mm A piece of wood is 6 cm long. How many mm is that? Think: 1cm = 10mm We are converting cm to mm. The number is going to look bigger. So we have to multiply. We need to multiply by 10. x 10 1cm = 10mm x 10 6cm = _?_mm 6 x 10 = 60 The piece of wood is 60mm long. Now, let s practice. Write down your thinking in each box.

21 Paper Aeroplane Throw Let s put those measuring skills to good use. Talk to your teacher before you begin this activity. You will need to plan when would be a good time to do this activity with other people in your class. 1. Everyone needs to make a paper aeroplane. 2. Mark the starting line. 3. One person throws their aeroplane from the starting line. 4. Using a tape measure, measure the distance the aeroplane flew. Don t forget to start at zero! 5. Record the details in the first two columns of the table below. 6. Continue until each person has thrown their aeroplane. Name Distance m and cm Distance m Distance cm Example Max 3m and 42cm 3.42m 342cm 21

22 Now that you have filled in the first two columns of the table you can use your conversion skills! Fill in the last two columns of the table. Record any sums you need to do in the space below: Whose plane flew the longest distance? Whose plane flew the shortest distance? Write the distances the plane flew in ascending order (shortest to longest).,,,,,,. Well done! Ask your teacher to check your table and answers to your questions. Explain how you converted the measurements in your table. 22 Brisbane Youth Education & Training Centre 2013 v1.0

23 Mini Athletics This activity allows you to put all those measuring skills to use out on the oval. Discuss this activity with your teacher to plan when and how the class will complete it. The purpose of the activity is not to compete and win, but to measure distances and times. Below is a list of suggested events: Event Equipment required Event Location Long Jump Frisbee throw Vortex throw Measuring tape Frisbees x3 Measuring tape Markers to mark throws x Vortexes x3, Measuring tape Markers to mark throws x6 Beach Volleyball Court Oval Oval 100m sprint Stopwatch Oval 400m run Stopwatch Oval 23

Data from Mini Athletics in metres Convert to cm Activity 2 Place the data in descending order (longest distance to shortest),,,,,,,. Activity 3 Write the shortest distance. If someone jumped 30cm further, write the new distance. 25

26 Activity 4 Write the longest distance. If someone jumped 50cm less than that, write the new distance. Ask your teacher to check your work. Explain how you converted the measurements to cm in your table. Explain how you completed Activity 3 and Activity 4. You are amazing! You are so good at measuring length and distances now! Well done. Don t forget to keep track of your learning! Go back and tick Measure length. Use the Mass bookmark to start working again! 26 Brisbane Youth Education & Training Centre 2013 v1.0

27 Mass Mass is the amount of matter in an object. This is measured in grams and kilograms. So if we say that an item has a mass of 10 kilograms then we mean that it weighs 10 kilograms. Why do we need to learn about mass? Watch this video to find out. Grams and Kilograms We use grams to measure lighter things. We use kilograms to measure heavier things. Do you remember the language lesson we had when learning about length? kilo means 1000 times the unit So, kilogram means one thousand grams. Kilogram can be abbreviated to kg or kilo. Gram can be abbreviated to g. 1000g = 1kg 27

28 Use the abbreviation to write these words: sixty grams eighty-seven kilograms How much is a gram? How much is a kilogram? Three buttons 1 gram A bag of sugar 1 kilogram Which unit of measure would be used for the following items? A tub of margarine A newborn baby Meat that you buy at the butchers Put the following in order from heaviest to lightest. 300g 6kg 15g 89kg 362kg,,,,,, Ask your teacher to check your work. How many grams in a kilogram? How many mm in a cm? How many cm in a m? How many m in a km? 28 Brisbane Youth Education & Training Centre 2013 v1.0

29 Converting Remember that kilo means 1000 times the unit. How many grams in 1 kilogram? g = 1kg We will use this information when converting (changing) from grams to kilograms or back the other way! Converting kg to g A bunch of bananas weighs 4.5kg. How many g is that? Think: 1kg = 1000g We are converting kg to g. The number is going to look bigger. So we have to multiply. We need to multiply by x 1000 x kg = 1000g 4.5kg = _?_g 4.5 x 1000 = 4500 The bananas weigh 4500g. Now, let s practice. Write down your thinking in each box. Don t forget to write g with each answer. How many g in: 6kg = 6 x kg = 9.8kg = 22kg = 34.6kg = 0.54kg = 29

30 Converting g to kg The baby weighed 3450g. What is that in kg? Think: 1000g = 1kg We are converting g to kg. The number is going to look smaller. So we have to divide. We need to divide by g = 1kg g = _?_ kg = 3.45kg The baby weighed 3.45kg Now, let s practice. Write down your thinking in each box. Don t forget to write kg with each answer. How many kg in: 3000g = g = 4213g = g = 970g = 500g = Ask your teacher to check your work converting g to kg. 31

31 There are 3 ways to write the mass of an object: grams, kilograms and grams, kilograms with a decimal. Fill in the following table. When filling in the Grams or Kilograms column, write the sum you used. Object Grams Kilograms and grams Kilograms 4076g = 4kg 76g 4.076kg 6089g 4kg 234g 54.06kg Read this factsheet. Explain the different types of scales to your teacher and give an example of what you might weigh on each of them. Play this game to practise reading scales and converting weights Play with this scales reader Brisbane Youth Education & Training Centre 2013 v1.0

32 Let s Start Weighing! You will need: Kitchen scales Things from around the room Kitchen scales are good for weighing things less than 5kg. Choose 6 objects from around the room. You may like to group objects together, for example, 5 pencils. Write each object in the table. Estimate how much you think the object will weigh. Weigh the object. Do a sum and convert the weight to kg. Object Estimate Weight in grams Sum Weight in kg List the weights from the table in ascending order (lightest to heaviest),,,,,, That s great! Ask your teacher to check your work. 33

33 How Much Do You Weigh? You will need: Bathroom scales People who are happy to be weighed Ask people in the room if they are happy to be weighed. Not everyone will want to and that is ok! Write down the names in the table. Don t forget your own name! Estimate how much you think each person will weigh. Weigh each person and record their weights in the table. Do a sum to convert the weight to grams. Thank everyone for helping you! Name Estimate Weight in kg Sum Weight in grams Great work! Now try this quiz. You can print your certificate when you finish Brisbane Youth Education & Training Centre 2013 v1.0

34 Well done! Ask your teacher to check your work. Explain how you converted kg to g Don t forget to keep track of your learning! Go back and tick Measure mass. Use the Capacity bookmark to start working again! 35

35 Capacity Capacity is the amount that a container can hold. For example, we can measure the capacity of a: jug teacup petrol tank Why do we need to learn about capacity? Watch this video to find out. Capacity is measured in millilitres and litres. We use millilitres to measure the capacity of small containers. We use litres to measure the capacity of larger containers. Do you remember the language lesson we had when learning about length? milli means a 1000 th part of the unit So, millilitre means 1000 th of a litre. There are 1000 millilitres in a litre. Millilitre can be abbreviated to ml. Litre can be abbreviated to L. 1000mL = 1L Highlight the best answer for each statement a drinking glass has a capacity of 300L 300mL a fruit juice popper has a capacity of 250L 250ml a kitchen sink has the capacity of 3L 30mL a bath tub has the capacity of 25L 25mL 36 Brisbane Youth Education & Training Centre 2013 v1.0

36 Capacity is the amount a container can hold. But what is volume? This jug has a capacity of 250 ml. The volume of milk in the jug is 175 ml. Can you see the difference? The capacity is how much the jug can hold. The volume is how much milk is in the jug. You measure capacity by reading from scales, such as the scales on the milk jug above. When you read the scales of a jug you have to read them at eye level. For example. A jug contains 300mL of milk. If you have your eyes at the same level as the milk, like Picture 1, you can read the 300mL on the scale accurately. If you are looking down on the milk, like Picture 2, it appears there is less than 300mL. Read these information sheets. Explain them to your teacher. Now play the Taking Measures Capacity game. 37

37 Converting Measurements You are an expert at converting now! You have converted m to cm, cm to m, m to km and all back again. And you have converted g to kg and back again. So this is going to be easy for you! Remember that milli means 1000 th millilitres in 1 litre? of the unit. How many ml = 1L Converting ml to L The bucket held 4021mL. How many litres is that? Think: 1000mL = 1L We are converting ml to L. The number is going to look smaller. So we have to divide. We need to divide by mL = 1L 4021mL = _?_ L = 4.021L The bucket holds 4.021L Write down your thinking in each box. Don t forget to write L How many L in: 3000mL = 5200mL = mL = Ask your teacher to check your work. 38 Brisbane Youth Education & Training Centre 2013 v1.0

38 Converting L to ml A wheelbarrow has a capacity 45L. Convert that to ml. Think: 1L = 1000mL We are converting L to ml. The number is going to look bigger. So we have to multiply. We need to multiply by x 1000 x L = 1000mL 45L = _?_ml 45 x 1000 = The wheelbarrow has a capacity of mL. Now, let s practice. Write down your thinking in each box. Don t forget to write ml with each answer. How many ml in: 6L = 8.9L = 25L = 6 x L = 0.7L = 0.56L = Print this worksheet. It has questions about converting and comparing length, mass and capacity. Excellent! Ask your teacher to check your work. Choose a question and explain how you solved it. 39

39 Let s Measure Capacity You will need: 5 containers of different sizes, eg cup, bowl Various measuring jugs with different scales, e.g. measuring cup, IL jug. Water Label your containers 1-5. Fill container 1 with water. Pour the contents into the most appropriate measuring jug you have. Write down the capacity of the container in one of the columns. Repeat with containers 2-5. When you have measured the capacity of all the containers, convert your measurements. Write your thinking. 40 Brisbane Youth Education & Training Centre 2013 v1.0

40 Container ml L and ml L Example 1200mL 1L and 200mL =1.2L List the capacity of the containers in ascending order.,,,,. Too deadly!. Ask your teacher to check your work. Now you can take the quiz and print your certificate. Don t forget to keep track of your learning! Go back and tick Measure capacity. Use the Temperature bookmark to start working again! 41

41 Temperature Temperature is the measure of how hot or cold something is. Watch this video to learn more about temperature. When measuring temperature we use degrees Celsius. The symbol for degrees Celsius is C Name three occasions you know that temperature is used: Brisbane Youth Education & Training Centre 2013 v1.0

42 Temperature is measured using thermometers. Read about the different types of thermometers here. This video shows how to read a thermometer. 4ddf7f108bac&context=searchresult Print and complete this worksheet about reading thermometers. 43

43 Let s Measure! You will need: Various thermometers For example: A clinical thermometer to measure body temperature A thermometer to read air temperature A meat thermometer Use the clinical thermometer and measure your own temperature. C Read the thermometer to see what temperature your classroom is. C Use the thermometers to fill in the following table. When you have finished, order the temperatures in ascending order (coldest to hottest) using the numbers 1 to 7. Body temperature Object Temperature Order Air temperature in the shade Air temperature in the sun Cup of cold water Cup of warm water Cup of hot water Soil Too deadly!.

Use the Rates bookmark to start working again! 45

45 Rates A rate compares different quantities in different units. We use rates every day. Some examples of rates are: Speed: kilometres per hour Cost: dollars per kilogram Petrol: cents per litre We can use the symbol / instead of writing per. We can also use the abbreviated, or short, form of the words. For example, kilometres per hour can be written as km/hr. Draw a line to match each rate with the abbreviated (short) form. Long form cents per minute dollars per hour beats per minute cents per litre kilometres per hour dollars per kilogram Abbreviated form km/hr cents/min $/kg $/hr beats/min cents/l 46 Brisbane Youth Education & Training Centre 2013 v1.0

46 From the list above, write what rate we would use to measure the following things. Use the abbreviated form. A person s heartbeat Filling the car with petrol Buying a bunch of bananas The speed of a car How much a person is paid The cost of a mobile phone call This website shows different types of rates. Click on the letter R on the side and then click on Rates. Complete the activity. You can use a calculator if you need to. Well done! Ask your teacher to check your answers. Explain to your teacher what a rate is. Give some examples of rates. 47
