What’s included in the Year 5 Estimate Volume Homework resource and why is it useful?

Year 5 Estimate Volume Homework is a set of worksheets to consolidate this step after it has been taught, at home or in class. Each set has been carefully designed to help you meet each child where they are at to ensure progress for every child, not just the average child. The content includes 3 levelled worksheets and a full answer sheet, covering estimating volume by counting missing cubes and using one object’s volume to estimate another.

Developing

• Q1 estimating the number of cubes to complete each cube with only external cubes missing.
• Q2 using the volume of one object to calculate the volume required of one other object (using approximately halves only).
• Q3 explaining which statement is correct when estimating the number of objects to fill a box when the box is approximately double the size of the given object.

Expected

• Q4 estimating the number of cubes to complete cubes and cuboids with only external cubes missing.
• Q5 using the volume of one object to calculate the volume of other objects smaller or larger than the size of a given volume (using approximately quarters or halves).
• Q6 explaining which statement is correct when estimating the number of objects to fill a box when the box is approximately eight times the size of the given object.

Greater Depth

• Q7 estimating the number of cubes to complete the model when the missing cubes are central.
• Q8 using the volume of one object to calculate the volume of other objects smaller or larger than the given volume (using various fractions).
• Q9 explaining which statement is correct when estimating the number of objects to fill a box when the box is multiple times the size of the given object, and includes space to add a second layer of objects.

How do our maths homework resources work?

Our maths homework resources are not part of our adaptive maths resources, but they can be used alongside for consolidation purposes and to give children more opportunities to practise.
