Video 4: Making your own measuring cylinder (for teachers and learners)

Intended audience: Science teachers, mathematics teachers


This video has three potential purposes. The first is for a teacher to help resource a primary school classroom. No complex mathematics knowledge is required as a calibrated template is provided below . for those that simply want to make a measuring cylinder. Secondly, the video can be used with younger learners who in primary school are expected to make useful containers from recyclable materials. Thirdly, it can be used in a high school Mathematics classroom, where learners are expected to problem solve using the formula for measuring volume of cylinder.
