Year 4 maths worksheet: Metric units of measurement

By Year 4 children should be quite familiar with the main metric units of measurement and should know the following:

1 kilometre = 1 000 metres

1 metre = 100 centimetres

1 metre = 1 000 millimetres

1 centimetre = 10 millimetres

1 kilogram = 1 000 grams

1 litre = 1 000 millimetres

It is a good idea to tell children that mille is Latin (and French) for 1 000, not one million!

This page is a good check of understanding this and getting children to use these units of measurement.
