Measurement

Today I found some objects around my house to measure.
I got a ruler.
I estimated what I thought the objects would measure.
Then I used the ruler and got actual measurements of the items.
I was close with some of my guesses but way off with some.

Fork - 14cm
Ladle - 21cm
Basting Brush - 21cm
Straw - 18cm
Book - 16cm
Pencil - 12cm
Toy Car - 30cm
Cake Slice - 31cm

Straw - 25.5cm
Book - 25cm
Pencil - 18.5cm

  1. Way to go Lacey with your Measurement mahi. It's good to see you having a go at estimating and using a ruler to get the actual measurements. What was your closest estimation and what was you farthest estimation? Keep it the awesome mahi Lacey. P.s I like your photo too, you look hard at work:)
