Customary and Metric Units of Measure

Hey everyone!


So the past two weeks we have been talking about customary and metric units of measure.  We just did a basic understanding of how to convert and I am trying to think about ways I can extend my children's real world connection.  They are very familiar with the obvious "we measure things like a house, or our height, or our weight."  And they have always done model homes- what else can we do?!


Also, I wanted to attach a sheet I found about the metric system.  It really helped my children understand the metric system.  I do not know who this came from- so if it's yours please let me know so I can give you credit!!!!!!
