How can we measure length?
- Measuring length tells us how long or short something is.
- We can use different tools like rulers or measuring tapes.
- We measure in units like inches, feet, or metres.
Examples:
- Using a ruler:
- We can use a ruler to measure a pencil. It might be 7 inches long.
- Rulers have numbers to show how long things are.
- Using a measuring tape:
- When we want to measure a door, we can use a measuring tape.
- The tape can show us that a door is 2 metres tall.
- Using your steps:
- If you walk from your classroom to the playground, you can count your steps!
- Each step could be about 1 foot, and you might take 10 steps!
