3RD GRADE MATH - USING A RULER TO MEASURE SMALL LENGTHS
Measuring Lengths of Small Objects using a Ruler
A ruler is a simple soft plastic or wooden strip having marking of units of measure of length. Most common ruler has Inches on one end edge and Centimeters on the other. We will use the same ruler to measure the lengths of some common objects. We will use both inch and centimeter edges of the ruler.
Below are the activity sheets to print;
good examples for learning
1 inch equivalent to 2.5 centimeters, the measuring scale is always in the measuring tool either ruler or other length measuring tool. but rarely familiarize the child to observe the measuring tool he has so that the child patterned in his brain that 1 inch = 2.5 cm. so is the application in life. so @mathworksheets.
