Key Topics to Revise

1

Understanding Length Measurement

  • Length can be measured as height, width, depth, breadth - all refer to length measurement
  • We use different words like tall, wide, short, and long in daily life, but they all measure length
  • Length is measured using standard units to get accurate results
2

Metre (m) - The Bigger Unit

  • Metre is used to measure longer distances and bigger objects
  • 1 metre can be divided into half metre (1/2 m) and quarter metre (1/4 m)
  • 1 m = 1/2 m + 1/2 m (two halves make one whole)
3

Centimetre (cm) - The Smaller Unit

  • Centimetre is used to measure smaller objects accurately
  • A metre scale is divided into 100 equal parts
  • Each small part is called 1 centimetre (1 cm)

Converting Between Metres and Centimetres

  • To convert metres to centimetres: multiply by 100
  • To convert centimetres to metres: divide by 100
