Measure the Length Word Problems

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Are your scholars beginning to learn how to measure? Use these images to help them use precision and include units in their answers. There are 10 objects; each one is measured against a row of boxes, which represent different units for each question. Learners write the measurement, including the units specified. Keep in mind, many of these things are unrealistically sized. Challenge your class' perception of these units by asking them which numbers seem too large or small (an example is the 8-yard starfish).
