Capacity Doubles

This maths teaching pack for Key Stage One gets the children to practise doubling a range of measurements recorded in millilitres using numbers to ten, twenty and thirty to find the capacity of some different sized bottles.
The class can explain and illustrate how to use repeated addition calculations to find the total capacity of pairs of vessels and containers with the same measurements.
Download this teaching pack including classroom activities and an interactive presentation to practise doubling a range of measurements recorded in millilitres using numbers to ten, twenty and thirty to find the capacity of some different sized bottles
Activities in this teaching pack include a set of differentiated worksheets to identity and record how to double measurements in millilitres using numbers to ten for support ability levels, to twenty for core ability levels and to thirty for extension ability levels to find the matching total capacities of different sized vessels.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to double measurements in millilitres using numbers to ten, twenty and thirty to find the capacity of different bottles.
This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to explain and model how to measure, calculate and record the capacities of different containers and vessels working with non-standard and standard units. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
