This worksheet has your child measuring objects in both centimeters and inches. The first task requires measuring both objects in centimeters, then finding their difference. The second task is the same but in inches.
Introduce your kids to the various measuring tools and their uses. Explain how a ruler, plastic tape, yard stick, and metal tape measure are used to measure different objects. Guide them as they help Steve measure things in his home with the correct tool.
To do this worksheet, your child needs to be able to measure accurately, add and subtract. They must measure both items and subtract the shorter from the longer to work out the difference in length.
Learning measurements can be tricky, but this worksheet makes it easy. Ask your child to identify the instruments in the pictures. Then, order them by length using the numbers. 3 is the longest, 1 is the shortest. Simple exercises like this will help them understand the different metric systems.
