What's included?
Targeted Year 5 resources for converting between metric and imperial units (approximate equivalents), introducing non-standard conversion, a key KS2 Maths objective. Activities build conceptual understanding of approximate unit equivalences (e.g., 1 inch is approx 2.5 cm), promoting reasoning in measure comparison. This essential small step supports mastery of measure and is vital for meeting national curriculum expectations. The CS Maths Scheme provides structured conversion tasks.
