Measurement

**Engage:** Where and how are Measurement principles applied in everyday situations? Investigation / Inquiry- Renovation Rescue


 * Explore:** What do we currently know about measurement? What are the terms that you have heard about and what do they mean?


 * Explain:** What skills do we have or need to assist with demonstrating satisfactory completion of the outcome? How do we acquire them?


 * Elaborate:** What are the deeper measurement concepts?

**Evaluate:** How do we know we have understood these concepts? Completion of Problem Solving tasks (3) Results in pre and post skills Test (including mathletics) Completion of Inquiry InvestigationPeer assessment ment and feedback on Investigation Reflections Learning Journal Wiki discussion and participation

__**Outcomes**__ At Level 6, students estimate and measure length, area, surface area, mass, volume, capacity and angle. S elect and use appropriate units, converting between units as required. C alculate constant rates such as the density of substances (that is, mass in relation to volume), concentration of fluids, average speed and pollution levels in the atmosphere. Decide on acceptable or tolerable levels of error in a given situation. Interpret and use mensuration formulas for calculating the perimeter, surface area and volume of familiar two- and three-dimensional shapes and simple composites of these shapes. <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 150%; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">Use Pythagoras’ theorem and trigonometric ratios (sine, cosine and tangent) to obtain lengths of sides, angles and the area of right-angled triangles.
