Measuring Length, Weight, and Time

Measuring Our World

We use math to measure length, weight, and time every day. Measurement helps us know how tall we are, how heavy something is, or when it's time for lunch.

Units of Measurement

  • Length: inches, feet, centimeters, meters
  • Weight: ounces, pounds, grams, kilograms
  • Time: seconds, minutes, hours

Tools for Measuring

  • Rulers and tape measures for length
  • Scales for weight
  • Clocks and watches for time

Real-Life Measuring

You measure your height at the doctor's office and time how long it takes to run a race!

Examples

  • Using a ruler to see if your desk is 3 feet long.

  • Weighing apples at the store to see if they are 2 pounds.
