Explore the world of converting units with this in-depth Year 5 Kilograms and Kilometres Teaching PowerPoint.
The teaching sequence begins by introducing the meaning of the prefix 'kilo-' and how this relates to measures. The resource then moves on to focussing on how to convert between metres and kilometres, using conversion diagrams for support. The learning then concentrates on conversions between grams and kilograms before children are given the opportunity to apply their knowledge and understanding to a reasoning and problem-solving question.
Ideal for use with your whole class, this resource is designed to support children's learning and is complete with varied fluency questions throughout the sequence. Teaching staff could use these to identify and address any misconceptions the children may have whilst assessing who may need additional support.
