Here’s what teachers are saying:

✏️ "My students always enjoy the chance to move and this allowed them to show what they had learned about measurement in a fun and engaging way." -Renee B.

✏️ "The students were engaged with the activities and had so much fun moving around the room and measuring objects. It gave them an opportunity to work together to solve each task." -Tanya E.

✏️ "My students absolutely loved this activity! They enjoyed going around the classroom to measure all sorts of things and comparing their answers with others. As an extension, I had quick finishers finding additional things to measure and record. For differentiation, I had some students work together and guided others while the rest of the class worked independently. They were so engaged that I could just let them do their thing!" -Inspire to Inquire
