INTRODUCTION

"Capacity means how much a container will hold and we can see the more or less parallels in a container. Volume refers to the space taken up by an object itself. So capacity applies not to the liquid, but to containers. It is the “units of capacity” that are used for liquids. Children always believe that the amount of liquid has changed when a set amount has been poured from one container to another container with a different size. They believe that there is more liquid in the high container compare with the low container."

According to the article of National Centre for Excellent in The Teaching of Mathematics, children often believe that the amount of liquid will be changed when the same amount has been poured from one container to another of a different size. This is a misconception on capacity that is happened on children when comparing capacity of two containers.

We can measure liquid volumes in various ways using special apparatus or equipment like beakers, measuring cups, spoons, measuring cylinders and other containers. Measuring liquid is an important part in our daily life. Therefore, it is important for children to learn the topic Volume Of Liquid. So, teacher needs to overcome children’s problem by helping them to understand the concept of measuring liquid volume.

As a conclusion, in choosing a suitable teaching aids, the level of knowledge of student, the suitable of teaching aids relate to content and make sure teaching aids is clear and can be viewable , hear by pupils. This is really important to meets your teaching objective. Teaching aids and teaching activities which based on the pupils’ level, low achiever pupils and high achiever pupils are specially design for my students.
