Contents
Key Stage 1
Meaning
To measure is to find out the size of something.
About Measuring
- Measuring is when we find out how big or small something is.
- You can measure lots of different things about an object like how big it is, how hot it is or how quickly it moves.
Examples
- A scientist wants to find the height of a tower.
- A scientist uses a ruler to find out how wide the door is.
- A scientist used a stopwatch out how long they take to eat a sandwich.
Used in a Sentence
- A scientist will measure the height of the tower.
- A scientist measures the width of the door using a ruler.
- A scientist measured the time it took to eat a sandwich using a stopwatch.
Key Stage 2
Meaning
To measure is to use a scientific instrument to find the size or amount of something.
About Measuring
- When you measure something you have to be careful to use your scientific instrument carefully to get the right measurement.
- You must use the right tool for the job. You must use a ruler to measure height, a stopwatch to measure time and a thermometer to measure temperature.
Key Stage 3
Meaning
To measure is to use a scientific instrument to find the size or amount of something.
About Measuring
- When you measure something you have to be careful to use your scientific instrument carefully to get the right measurement.
- You must use the right tool for the job. You must use a ruler to measure height, a stopwatch to measure time and a thermometer to measure temperature.
Key Stage 4
Meaning
To measure is to take two readings from a scientific instrument and find the difference between them.
About Measuring
- To measure something the value and the start and the value at the end must be read and then subtracted from one another.
- A measurement is the difference between two readings.
Examples
- The length of an object can be measured by using a ruler to take a reading at both ends of the object (eg 5.3cm and 7.6cm readings gives a measurement of 2.3cm long).
