2.  Complete activity 1 (parts A and B).  You have 10 minutes!

3.  Were your measurements close to the historical measures?  Lets look at the main customary units in order from smallest to largest. ◦ Inches, Feet, Yards, Miles ◦ Think about what is equivalent to each unit in the real world

4.  1 ft12inches 1 yard 3feet 12 in 1 ft 3 feet 1 yard  1760 yd 1 mile5280 feet1 mile 1 mile 1760yd 1 mile 5280 ft
