Non-Standard Measurement Book

My class had so much fun with this Non-Standard Measurement booklet.  We spread it out over three days.  The first day they measured themselves and each other with a paperclip.  The second day they measured their desk with a paperclip and the room with their feet.  The third day they measured the school with their feet.  It was a great way to talk about non-standard units and how we all get slightly different answers, but we should be close to each other because are feet aren’t that different in size!  Grab a free copy from Google Docs.
