Roll the dice and move around the board in this fun and interactive digital game focused on measuring capacity. As students journey through vibrant mini-worlds, they’ll answer a series of capacity-based questions and earn points for each correct response.

In each round, students will be shown an image of a real-world object and must determine whether it is best measured in litres (L) or millilitres (mL). The visual context helps students build real-life estimation skills while reinforcing their understanding of metric measurement units.

Let’s Roll – Units of Measurement: Litres or Millilitres? makes learning feel like an adventure, combining colourful environments, chance-based movement, and fun question prompts to help students develop meaningful capacity knowledge through repeated practise.

Key Learning Outcomes:

• ✅ Identify appropriate metric units to measure capacity (L and mL)
• ✅ Strengthen understanding of everyday measurement contexts
• ✅ Develop fluency with comparing and selecting units
• ✅ Engage with maths content through gameplay and visual learning
• ✅ Reinforce metric concepts with meaningful repetition

How to Play:

1. Students roll the dice to move their character around the board.
2. Upon landing on a space, they are shown an image of an object.
3. They decide whether the item would be measured in litres or millilitres.
4. Correct answers earn coins of varying values depending on the space.
5. The game continues until all questions have been answered, and the player with the highest total coin value wins.

Ideas for Classroom Use:

• 💡 Use during your measurement unit as a consolidation activity
• 💡 Great for maths rotations or as an end-of-lesson reinforcement game
• 💡 Perfect for Year 2–4 students developing confidence in choosing units of measure
• 💡 Pair with real-life measurement tools to compare actual capacities in the classroom

Top Teacher Tips:

• 💛 Let students personalise their experience by choosing from six characters before the game begins
• 💛 Select the number of players or teams at the start of the game to suit individual, paired, or group play
• 💛 Send the QR code home for students to play as a homework or revision task
