Recently our class has been looking at measurement, with a focus on non-standard units of measurement. Students participated in an activity that asked them to measure a friend, using anything they would like that could be found in the classroom. A few valuable lessons were learned, such as selecting tools that are all the same size and not leaving any spaces between the tools that you have chosen to measure with. Here is a video from PBS kids that relates to the activity from last week, see if you can find a non-standard unit of measurement around your house to measure a family member!
