Measurement and Geometry

Measuring and Shapes

Measurement helps us find out how long, heavy, or full something is. Geometry is the study of shapes and their properties.

Types of Measurement

  • Length (inches, centimeters)
  • Weight (pounds, grams)
  • Capacity (cups, liters)

Basic Shapes

  • Circle, square, triangle, rectangle
  • Learn about sides, corners, and symmetry

Real-World Connection

When you measure how tall you are, use a ruler for art, or build with blocks, you’re using measurement and geometry!

Examples

  • A rectangle has 4 sides and 4 corners.

  • A cup holds about 250 milliliters of water.

In a Nutshell

Measurement and shapes help us understand the world around us.
