 Length/Distance: mm, cm, m, km  Volume: mL, L, cm 3  Mass: mg, g, kg  Temperature: ˚C

 All units are base 10!  1000 milligrams = 1 gram  100 centimeters = 1 meter  1000 g = 1 kilogram  1000 m = 1 kilometer  This means when you do conversions you only have to know how to move decimals!

 Split up and go into the lab and make 5 metric measurements, record them below. Use things in your bag or around the room (put them back).  Do not put anything “heavier” than a 400 mL beaker on the small scales please or it may brake them.  Share your results with your group and get theirs too.

Now that you have made measurements use those to make predictions about: a. temperature outside in December. b. Temperature of boiling water. c. Length of the room. d. Mass of a full can of soda. e. Volume of a full can of soda f. Distance from here to Coulon beach. Write a full prediction: Ex: I think my wingspan is about 1.5 meters because I measured the width of the lab bench to be almost 1.4 meters and my wingspan is a little longer than that.
