Once your children are confident with converting units, you might want to give them something that will challenge their thinking and encourage them to find different or more efficient ways of working. This Year 5 Metric Units Discussion Problem is perfect for doing just that! Featuring two in-depth questions that are designed to be completed in small groups or pairs, this resource helps to develop reasoning and problem-solving skills.

An answer page that includes an example answer for each question is included in this resource. We advise letting your children mark their own work to encourage more discussion and self-correction.


Curriculum Objectives

  • Convert between different units of metric measure (for example, kilometre and metre; centimetre and metre; centimetre and millimetre; gram and kilogram; litre and millilitre)
