  1. Measurement Length, Capacity, Weight, & Temperature

  2. 2nd Grade Standards Apply measurement skills to measure the attributes of an object (length, capacity, weight). Read temperatures on a thermometer using Fahrenheit and Celsius. • Demonstrate unit conversions •  1 foot = 12 inches  1 quart = 4 cups •  1 pound = 16 ounces  1 hour = 60 minutes •  1 day = 24 hours  1 week = 7 days, and •  1 year = 12 months.

  3. 3rd Grade Standards Apply measurement skills to measure length, weight, and capacity using US Customary units. • Convert units of length, weight, and capacity •  inches or feet to yards  ounces to pounds •  cups to pints  pints to quarts •  quarts to gallons Measure and calculate perimeter of 2-dimensional figures.

  4. How We Measure

  5. Measuring Systems Metric U.S. Customary System

  6. Length: the longest dimension of an object. We measure length when we want to know how long something is. Distance: is a numerical description of how far apart objects are. We measure distance when we want to know how far apart things are from on another.

  7. Tools We Use

  8. Tools We Use

  9. Directions: 1. Copy the table onto your paper. 2. Find the objects in the room. 3. Using hand span, thumb, and foot, measure the height of each object. 4. Write down everything in your chart.

  10. Different Systems

  11. U.S. Customary System 1 inch (in.) 12 inches (in.) = 1 foot (ft.) 36 inches (in.) = 3 feet (ft.) = 1yard (yd.)

  12. Directions: 1. Copy the table onto your paper. 2. Find the objects in the room. 3. Using your inch ruler, measure the height of each object. 4. Only complete the inch measurements for now. 5. Write down everything in your chart.

  13. Directions: 1. Copy the table onto your paper. 2. Find the objects in the room. 3. Using your inch ruler, measure the height of each object. 4. Only complete the inch measurements for now. 5. Write down everything in your chart.

  14. Directions: 1. Do this with your partner. 2. Write down the blanks in the same areas as the picture shown. 3. Be careful with the ruler. Ask first before touching your partner.

  15. On a sheet of paper: 1. In your team, who had the biggest smile? 2. The biggest foot? 3. The longest pointer finger? 4. In you team, who had the smallest ear? 5. The smallest arm? 6. The smallest nose? 7. What part of your body is the biggest? Do you find that surprising? Why or why not? 8. What part of your body is the smallest? Do you find that surprising? Why or why not?

  16. Directions: 1. Copy the table onto your paper. 2. Take the cards out of the bag. 3. Using your inch ruler, measure the height and width of each card. 4. Using your perimeter formula, calculate the perimeter. 5. Write down everything in your chart.

  17. Metric 10 millimeters (mm) = 1 centimeter (cm) 100 centimeter (cm) = 1 meter

  18. Directions: 1. Copy the table onto your paper. 2. Find the objects in the room. 3. Using your centimeter ruler, measure the height of each object in millimeters and centimeters. 4. Only complete the inch measurements for now. 5. Write down everything in your chart.

  19. What would you use to measure?? U.S. Customary

  20. U.S. Customary System Metric meters (m) yards (yds.)

  21. Metric What would you use to measure??

  22. Capacity: is the ability to hold a fluid. We measure capacity when want to know how much fluid is in or is needed for something. Volume:is the amount of space a substance (solid or liquid) occupies or contains in a 3-D object. We measure volume when we want to know how much a solid or liquid can fill a 3-D area.

  23. Tools We Use

  24. Different Systems

  25. Equivalents 1 gallon (g.) = 4 quarts (qt.) = 8 pints (pt.) = 16 cups (c.)

  26. Equivalents 1 cup 16 tablespoons

  27. Equivalents 2 cups 1 pint

  28. Equivalents 1 quart 2 pints

  29. Equivalents 4 quarts 1 gallon

  30. Equivalents 16 cups 1 gallon

  35. Weight:is the amount or quantity of heaviness or mass; amount a thing weighs. We measure weight when we want to know how heavy something is.

  36. Tools We Use

  37. Different Systems

  38. Metric A paperclip has a mass of about 1 gram. What things in the classroom do you think have about a mass of 1 gram?

  39. Metric A nickel has a mass of about 5 grams. What things in the classroom do you think have about a mass of 5 grams?

  40. Metric A textbook has a mass of about 1 kilogram. What things in the classroom do you think have about a mass of 1 kilogram?
