The students were thrilled about doing measurement when they were working within the class/ and with a partner when comparing each other’s height and describing who is taller/est or shorter/est. They were capable of working out who the tallest, the shortest and equal height.

           .      

The non-standard unit introduced enabled students on how to measure the length of an object. They learnt how to estimate the distance using the non-standard unit before measuring the length of an object, in this case, their friends.

         

They learnt about how to get an accurate reading when starting from the baseline. 

              

In conclusion, by comparing their estimation with their measurement, they were thrilled when they were able to estimate it correctly or even closer to the correct length, which built much discussion about whether it was not enough, just right or too much. 

             

 

Delightful unit for children.
