ACTIVITY 2 : USING STANDARD UNITS

Learning Outcomes;

By the end of the lesson, pupils will be able to measure volume of liquids by using standard units correctly.

Prior Knowledge;

Pupils had learnt that the content of water will be determined based on their containers. The bigger containers show more volume of liquid while the smaller containers give us less volume of liquid. 

Teaching Aids;

Different sizes of containers, a pail of water, 

Vocabulary;

more, less, empty, half full, full, 

Procedures;

1. Divide the pupils into group of four to do work in their cooperative learning.

2. Appoint one student to be the recorder in the group

3. Give each group 5 set of containers of different sizes, a pail of water and two measuring cylinders. ( One    
    for milliliter and another one for liter)

4. Each group will fill every container with water.

5. They will measure the volume of liquid in each container by pouring the water from the containers into the measuring cylinders.

6. A group member record the results in the form given

*• Introduce the pupils that 1 liter = 1000 milliliter

• 1 liter x 1000 milliliter = 1000 milliliter

Conclusion;

For this activities pupils know that volume of liquid can be measured by using metric units such milliliters and liter. They also understanding the relationship between both measurement tools.
