What to Focus On

  • Measurement helps us compare things.
  • Non-standard units like hand span are not accurate.
  • Standard units are the same for everyone.
  • Standard unit of length is metre (m).
  • 1 metre = 100 centimetres, 1 centimetre = 10 millimetres.
  • Tools: ruler, measuring tape.
  • Standard units: gram (g) and kilogram (kg).
  • 1 kilogram = 1000 grams.
  • Tools: common balance, electronic balance, weighing machine.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Hand span or foot span is a correct way to measure length in science.

Bigger unit always means bigger number in measurement.

Weight and mass are different things, so we measure them differently.

Memory Tips
