We will learn basic concept of measurement of capacity.
The amount of water or any liquid that a vessel can hold is called its Capacity.
The larger vessel can hold more water than a smaller vessel.
We can measure capacity of one vessel by using another vessel.
Circle the vessel in each set which holds more water.
Arrange the vessels in the order from smallest to the largest capacity.
We know that capacity means how much a vessel can hold. A cup can be filled with 20 spoons of water means that capacity of cup in 20 spoons.
We can measure the capacity of a vessel by filling it up
with water or any liquid using another vessel.
Colour the number of vessels needed to fill the given vessel. One has been done for you.
