Measurement


 * Pikelets on Friday, 29 Aug. Period 4 in V5**


 * You will need the ingredients below plus fillings per group. Mrs Nathan will bring the ingredients, including milk, surviettes and eggs but groups will be required to bring self-raising flour, sugar, butter (100g max) to cook and other fillings. Also one measuring cup per group (I will bring my one just in case).**

Groups of 5 (4 groups in total) TARA: Jessica G, Cassie, Caitlin, Emma, Abbey MELE: Karleen, Jessica L, Amber, Venezia, Ellen, Mercede MANYA: Dana, Nicole L, Pascalle, Jenny, Leesha SADAF: Rebecca, Charmaine, Khadija, Veronica, Hineari
 * We also need plates, plastic knives and forks.**


 * Pikelet Recipe:**


 *  1 cup (150g) self-raising flour
 *  1 tablespoon caster sugar
 *  3/4 cup (185ml) milk
 *  1 egg
 *  Melted butter, to brush, plus extra knobs to serve


 * 1) Sift flour and sugar together into a bowl with a pinch of salt.
 * 2)  Step 2 Whisk milk and egg together, then add to dry ingredients, whisking until smooth.
 * 3)  Step 3 Heat a non-stick frypan over medium heat and brush with a little melted butter. Drop level tablespoonfuls of the mixture into the pan and cook for half a minute or until bubbles appear on the surface.
 * 4)  Step 4 Turn over and cook other side for 1 minute until golden.
 * 5)  Step 5 Allow to cool and serve with butter.

**Perimeter** To find the perimeter of a shape you have to measure the line around the outside of the shape. eg if you have a square with four sides the length of 5cm you would have to add the numbers up. 5+5+5+5=2 BY EMMA ADAM **Area of a rectangle** There is more than one way to the find the area of a rectangle. One way is to multiply the width by the length.
 * You need to be able to find the Perimeter and Area of a rectangle/square, Area of a parallelogram, Area of a triangle, Circumference (perimeter of a circle), Area of a circle, Vol.**

Example: What is the area of this rectangle?
The formula is: Area = w × h

w = width

h = height We know **w = 5** and **h = 3**, so: Area = 5 × 3 = **15**

Example: What is the area of this triangle?
Height = h = 12 Base = b = 20 Area = ½ × b × h = ½ × 20 × 12 = **120** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">A harder example:

How much does Sam earn cutting this area:
<span style="display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"> Let's break the area into two parts: Part A is a square: Area of A = a2 = 20m × 20m = 400m2 Part B is a triangle. Viewed sideways it has a base of 20m and a height of 14m. Area of B = ½b × h = ½ × 20m × 14m = 140m2 So the total area is: Area = Area of A + Area of B = 400m2 + 140m2 = 540m2 Sam earns $0.10 per square meter Sam earns = $0.10 × 540m2 = $54  <span style="display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"> =<span style="color: #003399; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 23px;">Volume of a Cuboid = <span style="display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px; text-align: center;">//A cuboid is a 3 dimensional shape.//

//So to work out the volume we need to know 3 measurements.//

There are 3 different measurements: Length, Width, Height || <span style="display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 17px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">The volume is found using the formula: <span style="display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px; text-align: center;"> Volume = Length × Width × Height <span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">Which is usually shortened to: <span style="color: #0000ff; display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 24px; text-align: center;">V = l × w × h <span style="display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px; text-align: left;">Or more simply: <span style="color: #0000ff; display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 24px; text-align: center;">V = lwh

<span style="color: #993300; font-family: qarmic,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 20px;">In Any Order
<span style="display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">It doesn't really matter which one is length, width or height, so long as you multiply all three together.

Example: Lengths in meters (m):
10 m × 5 m × 4 m = **200** m3  It also works out the same like this: 4 m × 5 m × 10 m = **200** m3 ||

<span style="display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 17px;"> <span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">Note: the result is in **<span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">m3 **<span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"> (cubic meters) because we have multiplied meters together three times. <span style="display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"> =<span style="color: #003399; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 23px;">Time - AM/PM vs 24 Hour Clock = <span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">Normally the time is shown as **Hours:Minutes** There are 24 Hours in a Day and 60 Minutes in each Hour.

<span style="display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"> Example: ** 10:25 ** means 10 Hours and 25 Minutes

<span style="color: #993300; font-family: qarmic,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 20px;">Showing the Time
<span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">There are two main ways to show the time: "24 Hour Clock" or "AM/PM": <span style="color: #6600cc; display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 17px;">**24 Hour Clock:** the time is shown as how many hours and minutes since midnight.**AM/PM** (or "12 Hour Clock"): the day is split into:
 * the 12 Hours running from Midnight to Noon (the **AM** hours), and
 * the other 12 Hours running from Noon to Midnight (the **PM** hours).

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">Like this (24-hour above and AM/PM below it): //Latin for "before midday"// || **P**ost **M**eridiem* //Latin for "after midday"// ||
 * || **AM** || **PM** ||
 * || **A**nte **M**eridiem*
 * When: || Midnight to Noon || Noon to Midnight ||
 * 24 Hour Clock: || 0:00 to 11:59 || 12:00 to 23:59 ||

<span style="display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px; text-align: center;">//*Is that spelled "Meridiem" or "Meridian"? See <span style="background-color: rgba(180,230,255,0.2);">[|here] .//

<span style="color: #993300; font-family: qarmic,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 20px;">Converting AM/PM to 24 Hour Clock
<span style="color: #6600cc; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 17px;">For the first hour of the day (12 Midnight to 12:59 AM), subtract 12 Hours <span style="color: #000088; display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 18px;">Examples: 12 Midnight = 0:00, 12:35 AM = 0:35 <span style="color: #6600cc; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 17px;">From 1:00 AM to 12:59 PM, no change <span style="color: #000088; display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 18px;">Examples: 11:20 AM = 11:20, 12:30 PM = 12:30 <span style="color: #6600cc; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 17px;">From 1:00 PM to 11:59 PM, add 12 Hours <span style="color: #000088; display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 18px;">Examples: 4:45 PM = 16:45, 11:50 PM = 23:50

<span style="color: #993300; font-family: qarmic,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 20px;">Converting 24 Hour Clock to AM/PM
<span style="color: #6600cc; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 17px;">For the first hour of the day (0:00 to 0:59), add 12 Hours, make it "AM" <span style="color: #000088; display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 18px;">Examples: 0:10 = 12:10 AM, 0:40 = 12:40 AM <span style="color: #6600cc; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 17px;">From 1:00 to 11:59, just make it "AM" <span style="color: #000088; display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 18px;">Examples: 1:15 = 1:15 AM, 11:25 = 11:25 AM <span style="color: #6600cc; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 17px;">From 12:00 to 12:59, just make it "PM" <span style="color: #000088; display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 18px;">Examples: 12:10 = 12:10 PM, 12:55 = 12:55 PM <span style="color: #6600cc; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 17px;">From 13:00 to 23:59, subtract 12 Hours, make it "PM" <span style="color: #000088; display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 18px;">Examples: 14:55 = 2:55 PM, 23:30 = 11:30 PM <span style="display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"> = HOLIDAY HOMEWORK - INVESTIGATE MEASUREMENT (use youtube, google, our wiki - under measurement etc.) =
