Students participate in a classroom scavenger hunt with a partner to measure common classroom objects using a ruler.

Advance your students from relative measurements to learning about standardized units with this lesson that teaches them about inches and feet by using common classroom objects.

In this lesson, your students will measure the lengths of items and then make a line plot to show the measurement data. They will get hands-on by measuring and surveying the class.

Students will love working together to create a display that demonstrates understanding of relative length. Use alone or with the lesson Order Up Measurement.
