The Loop Card Game for Year 5 students is an engaging educational activity designed to help children practice and master the concept of converting capacities between millilitres and litres. Each card presents a question that requires the student to convert a given measurement to its equivalent in the other unit. For example, one card may ask "How many millilitres is 1l?" prompting the answer "1000ml," while another card may pose the question "How many litres is 250 ml?" with the correct response being "0.25l." This interactive game not only reinforces their understanding of the metric system but also aids in the development of quick mental calculation skills.

The game continues with a series of conversion questions that increase in complexity, such as converting 2.5 litres to millilitres (2500ml) or determining how many litres are in 4331 millilitres (4.331l). With a variety of measurements presented, including those that require the understanding of decimal places and the conversion of smaller units like 10 millilitres to litres (0.01l), the Loop Card Game is a comprehensive tool for enhancing a student's proficiency in measuring and converting capacity. The game is designed to be both educational and enjoyable, promoting active learning and retention through repetition and the challenge of completing the loop of cards.
