Exploring Measurement!

Yesterday we talked about why we might use tape measures instead of rulers or yardsticks to measure things. Students realized right away that tape measures are flexible, while rulers are not. They are also much longer! We used tape measures to measure body parts. Students worked with a partner and recorded results in their math journals. Fun!



Today, students measured candles using centimeters.
