National Curriculum Objectives

Mathematics Year 6: (6M8a) Calculate, estimate and compare volume of cubes and cuboids using standard units, including cubic centimetres (cm3) and cubic metres (m3), and extending to other units [for example, mm3 and km3]

Mathematics Year 6: (6M7c) Recognise when it is possible to use formulae for the area of shapes

Differentiation:

Questions 1, 4 and 7 (Varied Fluency)
Developing Identify the cuboid with a different volume to the others using the formula l x w x h. Whole numbers in multiples of 2, 3, 5 and 10 only.
Expected Identify the cuboid with a different volume to the others using the formula l x w x h. Some conversion between metric measures needed (mm to cm or cm to m); whole unit measurements.
Greater Depth Identify the cuboid with a different volume to the others using the formula l x w x h. Whole numbers and numbers to one decimal place. Include conversions between units (including mm to m or m to mm).

Questions 2, 5 and 8 (Varied Fluency)
Developing Use the formula l x w x h to identify the cuboids which match the given criteria. Whole numbers in multiples of 2, 3, 5 and 10 only.
Expected Use the formula l x w x h to identify the cuboids which match the given criteria. Some conversion between metric measures needed (mm to cm or cm to m); whole unit measurements.
Greater Depth Use the formula l x w x h to identify the cuboids which match the given criteria. Whole numbers and numbers to one decimal place. Include conversions between units (including mm to m or m to mm).

Questions 3, 6 and 9 (Reasoning and Problem Solving)
Developing Identify a pair of cuboids to make a compound 3D shape to match the given criteria. Whole numbers in multiples of 2, 3, 5 and 10 only.
Expected Identify pairs of cuboids to make a compound 3D shape to match the given criteria. Some conversion between metric measures needed (mm to cm or cm to m); whole unit measurements.
Greater Depth Identify pairs of cuboids to make a compound 3D shape to match the given criteria. Whole numbers and numbers to one decimal place. Include conversions between units (including mm to m or m to mm).
