Comparing Capacity and Volume - Worksheet
Maths Resource Description
The 'Comparing Capacity and Volume' worksheets are designed as a practical resource for teaching maths, specifically focusing on the concepts of capacity and volume. Worksheet 1 presents a series of boxes, each containing illustrations of two different containers. Students are tasked with comparing the capacities of these containers and circling the one that holds the most liquid in one exercise, and the one that holds the least in another. This exercise aims to develop students' abilities to visually assess and compare the capacity of various objects.
Worksheet 2 takes an interactive approach by asking students to cut out words and paste them onto the correct volume, thereby reinforcing their understanding of volume-related terminology through physical activity. Moving on to Worksheet 3, students are given multiple-choice scenarios where they must identify the object with the largest or smallest capacity from a given pair. Additionally, they are required to cut out objects and arrange them in order of capacity, starting with the smallest. Finally, Worksheet 4 provides a creative task where students colour in bottles to represent different levels of fullness, such as half full, nearly empty, and completely full, allowing them to visualise and conceptualise varying volumes within containers.
