What is the Basic Idea of Metric Measures?

KS1 metric units of measure worksheets help children understand standard units of measurement like centimetres and metres in the world around them. Year 1 pupils learn to use rulers and measuring tools to find actual lengths and heights. They start with simple measuring activities using centimetres before understanding larger units like metres. This builds the foundation for more complex metric conversions later in their education.
