Recently, we have begun our new unit on measurement! Your task for today is to measure a variety of objects and see if you can find some that fit the following criteria. Remember to think about whether you are measuring in centimeters (cm) or millimeters (mm). Please use a ruler.
- How many millimeters are in a centimeter?
- Find an object that is less than 10 cm long.
- Find a food that is greater than 60 mm long.
- Find an object around your house that has a length between 90 mm to 150 mm.
- Find an object that has a width of 5 cm.
- Find an object that has a width between 10cm and 20cm.
- What is a trick you can come up with to help you remember the difference between length and width?
Please write down your results on a piece of paper to be handed in on Thursday. You can also email Ms. Ward and/or Ms. Ramen your answers as well.
