Measuring Liquids & Masses
Measure and estimate liquid volumes and masses of objects using grams, kilograms, and litres; solve one-step word problems involving mass or volume
Lesson
Set out your lesson
“Measuring Liquids & Masses means practising the idea at the table with counters or paper models and one clear check. We will demo once, then your child tries.”
Bring to the table
- Paper shapes or a ruler and pencil
- Shape name cards
Extra for the adult
Worked example. A rectangle has four right angles. Naming the property is the check.
Optional challenge. For Measuring Liquids & Masses, add one harder example after success.
What to notice. Keep one parent note: examples tried; results; support used. This session samples Measuring Liquids & Masses, not mastery.

Check understanding
- Estimate the mass of a textbook in grams or kilograms
- Read a scale to measure liquid volume in litres
- Solve: 3 bags weigh 250 g each — what is the total mass?
“If your child is filling bottles that each hold 250 ml from a 2-litre container of juice, can they work out how many bottles they can fill?”
