Measurement Chance and Data 3.0

Chance

●       students estimate and measure length, area, volume, capacity, mass and time using appropriate instruments.

●      They recognise and use different units of measurement including informal (for example, paces), formal (for example, centimetres) and standard metric measures (for example, metre) in appropriate contexts.

●      They read linear scales (for example, tape measures) and circular scales (for example, bathroom scales) in measurement contexts.

●      They read digital time displays and analogue clock times at five-minute intervals.

●      They interpret timetables and calendars in relation to familiar events.

Design a survey to ask students in the school a question where students give a number.
