The document discusses different units of measurement for volume and capacity. It provides examples of common units like milliliters, liters, and how to convert between them. Rules are explained for changing larger units to smaller units by moving right on a diagram, and vice versa. Examples show how to use these rules to convert quantities between units like liters to milliliters.

3. 1. gain knowledge on measuring capacity
2. convert unit of volume measure to
another unit

4. 3. recognize the different units of
measure for volume/capacity.
4. appreciate the knowledge application
in real life

6. There are two most common measurements for
capacity / volume:
• milliliters (mL)
• Liters (L)

8. A
(mili + liter = milliliter)
• a very small amount of
liquid.
• it doesn’t even fill the
teaspoon
milliliter in a teaspoon

9. If you collect about 20 drops of water,
you will have 1 milliliter.

10. A teaspoon can hold about five .

11. are often written
as .
150 mL means 150
milliliters.
150 mL milk in a measuring cup.

13. A is a bunch of
milliliter put all together.
• 1000 mL = 1 Liter
• Liters are often written as
for short.
• milk, soda, & other drinks
are often sold in liters.
A jug that has 1L of water in it.
