National Curriculum Objectives

Mathematics Year 5: (5M8) Estimate volume [for example, using 1 cm3 blocks to build cuboids (including cubes)] and capacity [for example, using water]

Mathematics Year 5: (5M9a) Use all four operations to solve problems involving measure [for example, length, mass, volume, money] using decimal notation, including scaling

Differentiation For Year 5 Estimate Capacity:

Varied Fluency
Developing Questions to support estimating capacity. Includes estimating halves and quarters. No conversions needed. Multiple choice answers for support.
Expected Questions to support estimating capacity. Includes estimating three quarters and thirds. No conversions needed. More multiple choice answers to choose from.
Greater Depth Questions to support estimating capacity. Includes estimating sixths and eighths. Conversions may be required. More complex images included.

Reasoning and Problem Solving
Questions 1, 4 and 7 (Reasoning)
Developing Estimate the capacity of a jar using their knowledge on recognising halves and doubling. Includes numbers less than 100.
Expected Estimate the capacity of a jar using their knowledge on recognising quarters and three quarters. Includes numbers greater than 100.
Greater Depth Estimate the capacity of a jar using their knowledge on recognising quarters and thirds. Includes numbers up to 500.

Questions 2, 5 and 8 (Problem Solving)
Developing Compare 3 containers to estimate capacity. Calculate half-way between two amounts. Multiples of 100 included.
Expected Compare 3 containers to estimate capacity. Calculate more or less than half-way between two amounts. Multiples of 10 included.
Greater Depth Compare 3 containers to estimate capacity. Calculate more or less than half-way between two amounts. Any multiple included.

Questions 3, 6 and 9 (Reasoning)
Developing Use knowledge of the 10 and 5 times tables to explain whether an estimation is correct. No conversion of litres or millilitres required.
Expected Use knowledge of times table facts up to the 10 x 10 to explain whether an estimation is correct. Simple conversion of litres and millilitres required.
Greater Depth Use knowledge of table facts to 12 x 12 to explain whether an estimation is correct. Simple conversion of litres and millilitres required.
