Metric Measurement Stations
Help the team prepare three stations for a community picnic. Solve each task using metric units. For Question 11, use a suitable measuring tool and record your own result.
Station 1: Length
Choose and convert length units.
1.The picnic table is 2.4 m long. How many centimetres long is it?
2.A roll of ribbon is 350 cm long. Choose the equivalent length in metres.
- 3.5 m
- 35 m
- 0.35 m
- 3500 m
3.Use the number line to put 0.8 m, 1.2 m and 1.6 m in order from shortest to longest.
4.One picnic table is 1.8 m long and another is 2.3 m long. How much longer is the second table?
Station 2: Mass
Prepare the picnic food using grams and kilograms.
5.A sack of potatoes has a mass of 2 kg. How many grams is that?
6.A picnic basket contains 750 g of apples and 1 kg of crackers. What is the total mass in grams?
7.Choose the best unit for the mass of one strawberry: grams (g) or kilograms (kg). Explain why.
Station 3: Capacity
Fill the drink containers and check the quantities.
8.A drink dispenser holds 2.5 L. How many millilitres is that?
9.A jug contains 1,200 mL of water. Write this capacity in litres and millilitres.
10.Match each picnic item with the most suitable unit: length of a spoon; mass of a loaf of bread; capacity of a drink bottle; length of a picnic blanket.
- Length of a spoon
- Mass of a loaf of bread
- Capacity of a drink bottle
- Length of a picnic blanket
- metres (m)
- millilitres (mL)
- centimetres (cm)
- grams (g)
Use a ruler or tape measure to measure one small object nearby. First estimate its length, then measure it to the nearest centimetre. If no object or tool is available, choose a pencil and record a sensible example.
11.Record the object, your estimate and your measured length. Include the unit.
12.The team needs 3 L of juice. They already have two 750 mL bottles. How many more millilitres of juice do they need?
