Measuring length

As a part of Maths curriculum, units of measure are introduced, with the idea of moving on from direct comparisons of objects to the comparison of a single object to a number of equal units. Non- standard units are used to introduce the idea of a unit to measure with, such as cubes or pencils to measure the length of objects. This is an important step before introducing standard metric units, as it gives learners something familiar to measure with. 

The students measure the length of ribbons using counters.
