Measuring length and distances
Measurement is a process that uses numbers to describe a physical quantity based on what we can observe. This is done to be able to compare them to each other. To measure we need a standard or unit for our comparisons, so that the numbers from our measurements refer to the same thing.
In this unit students will:
-
distinguish between the concepts of length and distance
-
differentiate metric and imperial system and their unit of measurement
-
identify different measurement tools
-
estimate the length of different objects
-
calculate distances in kilometres and miles
-
locate the capital cities in the UK
-
measure distances using google maps
