Measurement is used to determine quantities such as length, weight, temperature, and time. There are various tools used to measure different attributes, and systems like the metric system standardize units of measurement. Measurement is essential in everyday life to quantify things and convert between units within or between systems. It also helps characterize materials.
2. What is measurement?
Measurement is determining the length, time,
temperature, width, size, etc.Or the other way to say it
is measuring:
How much?
How heavy or light?
How Deep or shallow?
How long or short?
How far or close
Etc.
3. How do we use measurement
in real life?
Examples:
Measuring the length of a car, table, door or anything you
can measure the length with.
Measuring the temperture in a room, water, forehead or ear
to see if they have fever, or anything that could be
measured in temperature.
Measuring the weight of someone, vegtables, fruits, or
anything that could be measured in tempersture.
So basicly we use measurement every day and it’s really
important we know how to use measurement.
4. System of measurements
Metric system:millimeter, hectometer,
centimeter, meter, etc.
Minutes
Secounds
foot
Yards
liters
Inches
celcius
MIles
Hours
5. Tools for measurement
There’s a lot of tools for measuring, and these
tools im going to show you are the most common
ones
Length: ruler,tape measure
Temperature: thermometer,pyrometers.
Time: clocks,stop whatches,calendar
weight: scale
6. Converting between units and within
different systems of measurement
We can convert different within different
systems by only converting similar units.
Examples:
1 liter of water equals to 1Kg
1 square foot equals to 00.9 square units
1 yard equals to 91 cm
1 inch equals to 2.54cm
7. Conections between
measurement and materials

Usually measured by
length,cm,inches or meters
