Measurement is a part of mathematics that is all about finding out and describing the size of different things . We use measurement often in our daily lives to explain things such as distance, time, temperature and weight.
What you'll learn
This course is broken into four sections.
1. Practical measurement
In this section you'll learn how to:
- measure length and distance
- choose the best scales, devices and metric units to use for weight, temperature, time and length
- use and interpret scales, timetables and charts
- convert between metric units using decimals.
2. Length and shape
In this section you’ll learn how to:
- identify different two-dimensional shapes: polygons, triangles and quadrilaterals
- use side lengths to find the perimeters of polygons
- find the circumferences of circles and the perimeters of composite shapes
- read and understand scale drawings.
3. Area
In this section you’ll learn how to:
- calculate the area of rectangles
- find the area of parallelograms, triangles and circles
- estimate the area of irregular shapes
- work out the area of composite shapes.
4. Volume
In this section you’ll learn about:
- properties of cuboids
- calculating the volume of cuboids
- the difference between volume and capacity.
