Measurement > Units
Australian Curriculum Version 9 Says:
Choose appropriate metric units when measuring the length, mass and capacity of objects; use smaller units or a combination of units to obtain a more accurate measure.
What this means
Students (not the teacher or worksheet) choose which unit to use when measuring.
- Ideally students would choose the instrument used to measure.
Tip
- The elaborations mention the SI (or metric) units.
