The "Measuring Capacity Using Standard Units" worksheets are designed to help students understand and practice measuring the capacity of various items using litres and millilitres, which are the standard units of volume. The worksheets present a series of exercises where pupils are prompted to select the appropriate unit of measurement for different containers. They are given a choice between litres and millilitres and must circle the unit they believe is most suitable for measuring the capacity of each item listed.

Further activities within the worksheets involve practical measurement tasks. Students are encouraged to estimate the capacity of common household containers such as a plastic cup, margarine tub, jam jar, and yoghurt pot before using a measuring jug to find the actual capacity. This hands-on approach aids in developing their estimation skills and understanding of volume. Another worksheet provides a set of measuring beakers with different amounts of liquid, and students must indicate how much liquid is in each one, reinforcing their ability to read and interpret measurements. Answers are provided for some of the exercises to allow students to check their work and ensure they are using the standard units of measurement correctly.
