📏 Part 1: Volume Measurement

1. Calculate the volume of a cuboid container with length = 8 cm, width = 5 cm, height = 4 cm.

Volume = length × width × height

Answer: _______ cm³

2. Which unit is most appropriate for measuring the volume of a small jewellery box?

cubic metres (m³)

cubic centimetres (cm³)

litres (L)

millilitres (mL)

3. Estimate the volume of your pencil case. Then describe how you would measure it accurately.

My estimate: _______ cm³

🥤 Part 2: Capacity and Conversions

4. Convert these capacity measurements:

a) 2.5 litres = _______ millilitres

b) 750 mL = _______ litres

c) 1500 mL = _______ litres

d) 0.25 L = _______ millilitres

5. Circle the most reasonable estimate for the capacity of a standard coffee mug:

25 mL

250 mL

2.5 L

25 L

6. You need to fill a fish tank that holds 40 litres. How many 500 mL bottles of water would you need?

Answer: _______ bottles

⚖️ Part 3: Mass Measurement

7. Match each object with its most likely mass:

1. A paperclip

2. A textbook

3. A bag of sugar

4. A feather

A. 1 kg

B. 1 g

C. 500 g

D. 0.1 g

8. Convert these mass measurements:

a) 3.2 kg = _______ grams

b) 850 g = _______ kilograms

c) 0.75 kg = _______ grams

9. Which scale would be most appropriate for measuring the mass of an apple?

Kitchen scales (measures to nearest gram)

Bathroom scales (measures to nearest 100g)

Laboratory balance (measures to nearest 0.01g)

Industrial scales (measures to nearest kilogram)

🎯 Part 4: Real-World Applications

10. You are packing a school lunch. Estimate and then calculate the total mass:

• Sandwich: _______ g (estimate)

• Apple: _______ g (estimate)

• Water bottle (500 mL): _______ g (estimate)

• Biscuits: _______ g (estimate)

Total estimated mass: _______ g = _______ kg

11. A recipe calls for 1.5 L of milk, but you only have a 250 mL measuring cup. How many times do you need to fill the cup?

12. Check all the situations where you would use grams rather than kilograms:

Measuring flour for baking

Weighing a person

Measuring medicine dosage

Weighing a car

Measuring ingredients for a smoothie

13. Explain why estimation is important before measuring. Give an example from your own experience.

🧮 Part 5: Problem Solving

14. A swimming pool has dimensions: length = 25 m, width = 10 m, depth = 2 m. Calculate its volume in cubic metres, then convert to litres. (Remember: 1 m³ = 1000 L)

Volume = _______ m³ = _______ litres

15. Draw and label a diagram showing how you would measure the volume of an irregularly shaped object (like a rock) using water displacement.

16. Complete this measurement conversion table:

| Measurement | Grams | Kilograms |

| Mass of a laptop | _______ g | 2.5 kg |

| Mass of a pencil | 8 g | _______ kg |

| Mass of a backpack | _______ g | 1.2 kg |
