Loop Game - Converting Lengths Set 2
Maths Resource Description
The Loop Game - Converting Lengths Set 2 is a fun and educational resource created by KS2Gems to help Year 4 students practice and master the skill of converting between different units of length. This engaging activity includes a series of cards that pose various questions, prompting students to convert lengths from one metric unit to another. For example, one card may ask "What is 67cm in millimetres?" and the answer provided is "670mm". Other conversions include changing kilometres to metres, such as "What is 5km in metres?" with the answer being "5000m", and converting centimetres to metres, as in "What is 500cm in metres?" with the correct response being "5m".
Additionally, the game covers conversions from metres to kilometres, millimetres to centimetres, and vice versa. For instance, students will find that "8000m" is equivalent to "8km", and "30mm" is the same as "3cm". The game is designed to reinforce understanding of the metric system and improve fluency in measurement conversions. It includes more complex questions like "What is 7 metres 13 centimetres in centimetres?" to which the answer is "713cm", and "What is ½km in metres?" with the answer "500m". By playing this game, students will become more comfortable with the concept of metric conversion, an essential part of the mathematics curriculum.
