Length Measurements
This maths scheme of work for Key Stage Two gets the children to practise estimating, measuring and converting the lengths of different objects working with measurements in millimetres, centimetres and metres. The class can explain number skills that can be used when converting between different units for length.
Classroom Lengths
Identify and record the lengths of different objects that can be found around the classroom to match and convert measurements recorded in centimetres into metres
Car Lengths
Practise measuring and recording the lengths of a range of different parts of a car using measurements that have been recorded in matching centimetres and millimetres
Plant Measurements
Estimate, measure and record the lengths of different parts of a plant using measurements in units for centimetres and millimetres
-
Ancient Egyptian Pyramids
Explore how and why the Ancient Egyptians constructed and used different pyramids and tombs to reflect their beliefs about the afterlife
-
Earthquakes
Investigate and record some of the different causes and effects of earthquakes on locations around the world
-
Shape Locations
Explain and model how to record and change the co-ordinate positions of some different geometric shapes using translation and reflection movements in the first quadrant.
-
Shape Symmetry
Explore, record and compare the matching lines of symmetry that can be found in a range of different geometric shapes as part of their individual properties
