Be a part of a fantastic school exchange between a British and a Portuguese school when you download this Year 6 Converting Units challenge activity.

Using your knowledge of imperial and metric units, your mission is to help plan out and finalise the trip between the schools. From organising the coach companies to ordering food needed for the children's visit here, children will need to use their reasoning and problem-solving skills to help ensure the trip runs as smoothly as possible.

Ideal for paired or small group work, this resource has been designed to encourage mathematical discussions between children whilst helping them to further develop their knowledge and understanding in a fun and engaging way.
