Lesson Overview:
In this lesson, students will learn and be able to understand the reasoning behind why we measure objects in certain units. They will learn the difference between centimeters, meters, and inches. They will be able to measure using each unit by the end of the lesson. They will also learn songs to aid the process of recalling certain measurement units.

Learning Objectives:

As these are the standards listed above, here are the objectives that correspond:

Measure length using standard units
Engage students using motion/movement
Use bodies to estimate length
Apply what they learned to written assignment

To connect information to these students’ lives, I will..

Explain that we measure things every day without realizing, whether it be time, length, sound, temperature
