About Measurement

What is Measurement?

How to Help Your Child

Measurement is very hands-on — grab a ruler, measuring tape, or kitchen scale and measure things together. For unit conversions, the key relationships are: 12 inches = 1 foot, 3 feet = 1 yard, 1000 grams = 1 kilogram, 1000 mL = 1 liter.
