CCSS Description: Know relative sizes of measurement units within one system of units including km, m, cm; kg, g; lb, oz.; l, ml; hr, min, sec. Within a single system of measurement, express measurements in a larger unit in terms of a smaller unit. Record measurement equivalents in a two-column table. For example, know that 1 ft is 12 times as long as 1 in. Express the length of a 4 ft snake as 48 in. Generate a conversion table for feet and inches listing the number pairs (1, 12), (2, 24), (3, 36), …
CCSS Description: Convert among different‑sized standard measurement units within a given measurement system (e.g., convert 5 cm to 0.05 m), and use these conversions in solving multi‑step, real world problems.
Set around the theme of making fruit punch for a party, this worksheet will help reinforce the equivalence of 1 L and 1000 ml and has learners measuring the volume of liquid in various jugs and stating how many more milliliters are needed to make 1 L.
The scales that learners will read from vary with each question. Learners will also consider how many ml there are in ½ lliters.
