Tima measures the length of her table with playing cards.

We wrap up our measurement unit this month. This week, we practiced measuring length (la longueur) with non-standard units of our own choosing.

Logan measures the length of a stool with snap cubes.

Students learned that they need to use multiple copies of the units for the measurement to be accurate. For example, if choosing markers as a non-standard measurement unit, they needed to use the same markers.

Vienna and Allie measure the length of a glue stick with dice.

Students were asked to first estimate the length of a given object and then measure it out. It’s been a fun math activity!
