The kids began Unit 3 on Measurement this week. We did a read aloud with How Big Is A Foot? We then estimated the length of items and measured them in class shoe units. We discussed why all our measurements were not the same and then agreed on a "class shoe" length that everyone in the class can use. This allowed the lesson to flow right into the invention of "standard units" and why they are so important.
