solve

60 × 8 mm = 480 mm OR 48 cm

5 m = 500 cm

1 m = 1000 mm

52 weeks in a year × 2 = 104 mm OR 10.4 cm

.75 m + .5 m + .75 m = 2 m of sherbet stick

2 × $2 = $4

1000 mm ÷ 20 mm = 50 pieces

500 cm – 150 cm = 350 cm

60 km per hour means that it takes one hour to travel 60 km and is written 60 km/h.

Travelling far - speed and distance

Look at these distances and the time it took. Work out the speeds. Express your answer as km/h:

If a car travelled 300 km in 5 hours, work out how far it travelled in 2 hours and in 3 hours:

If a car travelled 560 km in 8 hours, work out how far it travelled in half an hour and in 4 hours:

Your group has been hired by your favourite charity to organise a 1 km fun run at your school.

You will plan and measure out the course and then get another group to test out your run.

The run needs to be exactly one kilometre in length. You’ll need markers at each 100 m point.

School rules must be followed. You may need to place signs indicating speeds for inside journeys.

The charity organisers will need detailed plans of your route and have asked your teacher to be their auditor. He or she may check on any or all of your calculations.

Once you think you are ready, submit your plans to your teacher. Stage your event.

Ask your teacher and the other groups for their feedback.

Work with your team to plan the route. Where do you predict 1 km will take • you? (You have to stay within the school grounds at all times.)

How will you measure the distances? What tools will you need? •

If you add obstacles such as climbing over equipment, remember to factor in • the distances involved in going up and down!

Once you have your route planned, test it out. Is it possible? Do you need to • refine it?

How will you record the route for your charity? A map? A scaled drawing? This • is a big task in itself so you may want to divide up the roles within the group.

MS3.1 - Select and use the appropriate unit and device to measure lengths, distances and

perimeters

MS3.2 - Select and use the appropriate unit and device to calculate area

measure and record

lengths or distances

use combinations of

cm, mm, m and km

appropriate unit and

device

question and explain

why two students

may obtain different

measures (WM)

solve problems

involving different

measures of length

VIC

VELS Measurement – Level 4

use metric units to estimate and measure length, perimeter, area

measure as accurately as needed for the purpose of the activity

convert between metric units of length

create new problems based on familiar problem structures (WM)

QLD

EL Y 5 - Length and area can be estimated, measured and ordered using standard and non-

standard units of measure.

standard units, including cm, m, cm², m² and a range of instruments are used to measure and

order attributes of objects including length and area

links exist between different ways of recording the same measurement

reasonable estimates can be made using strategies that suit the situation

ACT

17.LC.1 - measurement attributes of length, area, mass, capacity, volume, angle and time

17.LC.2 - informal and standard units of measurement of these attributes, including metre,

centimetre, millimetre, square metre, square centimetre, kilogram, gram, litre, millilitre,

degrees, hours and minutes

17.LC.3 - the concept of conservation, including different ways of recording the same

measurement (e.g. in metres, centimetres or millimetres)

17.LC.4 - the concept of measurements as approximations, with the measurement context

influencing levels of precision required and ways of refining measurements (e.g. by changing

units or instruments)

NZMeasurement - Use linear scales and whole numbers of metric units for length, area,

volume and capacity, weight (mass), angle, temperature, and time.
