Vocabulary Quiz - Measurement: Mass, Capacity and Time

This vocabulary quiz from KS2Gems is designed to test Year 6 students' knowledge of various measurement terms related to mass, capacity, and time. The first question asks what 'm³' stands for, with the correct answer being 'cubic metres', a unit of volume. The second question seeks to identify the term for a period of 10 years, which is correctly termed as 'a decade'. The quiz then moves on to question 3, which clarifies that a 'centilitre' is a unit of volume equal to 10 millilitres, not to be confused with larger or smaller volume measurements.

Further questions address the equivalence of mass and capacity units, such as one tonne being equal to 1000kg in question 4. Question 5 describes a timepiece with rotating hands, correctly identified as an analogue clock or watch. The concept of volume as the space occupied by a 3D shape is the correct answer for question 6. Question 7 asks about a 'decilitre', which is one-tenth of a litre. The term 'century' is correctly defined as a time period of 100 years in question 8. In question 9, the term 'change' is identified as the difference between the amount spent and the amount given to pay. Lastly, question 10 asks for the name given to commonly used units of measurement, with 'standard units' being the correct answer, encompassing both the metric and imperial systems.
