Measurement Mania Quiz
This auto-timed quiz allows students to demonstrate their understanding of length, capacity and mass using informal units to measure. Students will also compare objects based on their length, capacity and mass.
Can be used as an informal assessment 1-on-1 or with the whole class. Students can use paper or mini-whiteboards to record their answers.
Learning goals
- We are learning to order objects based on lengths and capacities.
- We are learning to compare and order objects and events using length, mass, capacity and duration using comparative language, e.g. lightest, light, heavier, heaviest.
- We are learning to measure the length of shapes and objects using informal units, recognising that units need to be uniform and used end-to-end.
