Convert between related metric units using decimals to three places (e.g. convert 1375 mm to 1.375 m, or vice versa)

Read and interpret scales on a range of measuring instruments, recognising that the measurement made is approximate and recording results to a required degree of accuracy; compare readings on different scales, for example when using different instruments

Solve problems by measuring, estimating and calculating; measure and calculate using imperial units still in everyday use; know their approximate metric values

Calculate the perimeter and area of rectilinear shapes; estimate the area of an irregular shape by counting squares

 

Calculate the area of right-angled triangles given the lengths of the two perpendicular sides, and the volume and surface area of cubes and cuboids
