This week we are learning about linear measurement.
Linear measurement is about measuring lengths, widths, and heights.
In Grade Two, we are being introduced to centimeter and meter. We are learning how to use a ruler properly but also we are learning how to estimate measurements using our bodies.
Did you know a centimeter is about the width of a child’s thumbnail?
Did you know that a meter is about the length of a child’s arm-span?
Have fun this week by estimating and measuring lengths around the house!
