3.12 Introducing Yards

We have been studying inches and feet. What are some other units that we could use to measure larger lengths? How long is one yard?

3.12 Introducing Yards How long do you think this is? Why do you start at zero when measuring objects? How many feet are in one yard? How many inches are in one yard?

3.12 Introducing Yards Identify objects in the classroom that look to be about 1 yard. Then using a yard stick, check your estimates.

3.12 Introducing Yards Yardsticks are helpful for measuring objects that are about one to two yards long, but they are not so helpful for measuring longer distances. Raise your hand if you know a measuring tool that could be used to measure the width of the classroom.
