Next Thursday we will be having a math quiz on measurement.  The grade 5’s & 6’s need to MEMORIZE the following information for it.

1 km = 1000 m

1 m = 100 cm

1 cm = 10 mm

1 t = 1000 kg

1 kg = 1000 g

1 L = 1000 mL

The grade 6’s (only) also need to know how to convert units.  They need to remember how many times to move the decimal over AND in what direction they should move it.

km to m:  3 places to the right       m to km:  3 places to the left

m to cm:  2 places to the right        cm to m:  2 places to the left

cm to mm: 1 place to the right        mm to cm: 1 place to the left

t to kg: 3 places to the right             kg to t:  3 places to the left

kg to g: 3 places to the right            g to kg: 3 places to the left

L to mL: 3 places to the right         mL to L:  3 places to the left

Mrs. Goosen will complete a final review with them on Tuesday.

ENJOY YOUR EXTRA LONG WEEKEND!
