This lesson builds on children’s knowledge of metric measurements. The resources focus on mass, length and capacity and include problems linked to estimation and problem solving. There is a teaching presentation and three levels of worksheets (working towards, expected and greater depth) with a range of fluency, reasoning and problem solving questions.
National Curriculum Objectives:
Mathematics Year 6:
·       convert between different units of metric measure (for example, kilometre and metre; centimetre and metre; centimetre and millimetre; gram and kilogram; litre and millilitre)
·       understand and use approximate equivalences between metric units and common imperial units such as inches, pounds and pints
·       solve problems involving converting between units of time

·       use all four operations to solve problems involving measure [for example, length, mass, volume, money] using decimal notation, including scaling.

Differentiation:
There are three levels of differentiation in this pack: ‘working towards,’ ‘expected’ and ‘greater depth’.
