I have to admit that measurement is one of my least favorite math units to teach. I don’t know why because it is so hands-on and the kids love it. It’s also so crucial for my kids because on a recent test that asked what they would measure their feet with miles, inches, or yards, most of my kiddos decided that they needed to look at their feet to decide the answer. I mean, really?? This seems to happen every year.
I have found some great resources to use with measurement. I love these books for teaching measurement.
Hope King has some great measurement activities. I’m using her activity for “How Big is a Foot?” when we go back to school after our snow days are over.
Reagan just posted this goodie last weekend and I snatched it up. The posters in this unit are great and are so kid friendly.
