9Xs

Welcome to the 9Xs Page
[|KVC Mathematics Long Term Plan 2009 Year 9.doc]We have started the measurement topic.

Remember, the word PERIMETER means the OUTSIDE edges of the shape. Just like the PERIMETER FENCE in a prison goes AROUND it. AREA is how much FLAT SPACE a shape covers. VOLUME is how much 3-DIMENSIONAL SPACE a shape fills.

centi means hundredths, milli means thousandth and kilo means thousand.

That means kilometre is literally "thousand metres". Millilitre means "thousandth of a litre" and so on.

I will be posting test dates and revision notes here in due course.
