- estimate, measure, and record length, height, and distance, using standard units (i.e., centimetre, metre, kilometre)
- draw items using a ruler, given specific lengths in centimetres
- compare standard units of length (i.e., centimetre, metre, kilometre) (e.g., centimetres are smaller than metres), and select and justify the most appropriate standard unit to measure length;
- compare and order objects on the basis of linear measurements in centimetres and/or metres
You can assist your child's development and understanding by:
- having him/her select appropriate units of measure for certain objects in real life
- asking him/her to measure objects in your home using a tape measure or ruler
- estimating how many kilometres it takes to drive to a familiar destination and checking upon arrival
