Math Test on Length Wednesday, January 24:

• measure using cm and mm on your ruler (e.g. measure the length of the line in millimetres)
• know the metric number line (names of the units)

• change from one unit to another (e.g. 700 cm =  ___ m)
• express a measurement in multiple units (e.g. 48 mm = ___cm ___mm)
• solve problems using the above skills (e.g. Max needs to walk 2 km to get to the park. He has walked 1500 m, how many more metres does he need to walk? Maxine wants to draw a line 1 decimetre long. She has drawn 8 cm. How many more millimetres must she draw?)
• identify and explain which units are most appropriate for measuring certain lengths and distances (e.g. What unit would you use to measure the length of a lady bug? What unit would you use to measure the distance to Air Canada Centre?) Hint: Always relate to a length that you know.... a car travels 100 km in one hour and I know it take 2 hours to get to Toronto so..... or the width of my finger is about 1 cm and I know a lady is smaller than that so....
