Welcome to your Measurement WebQuest. We are going to have a lot of fun learning new things, playing games and exploring the internet. So get your thinking hats on and your measuring tools ready. Measurement, Length, Rulers...Here We Come!!! Lesson 1What are we talking about when we mention length? Is it the shape of an object? The name of the object? Or is it have to do with how LONG the object may be. Let's find out... When we are talking about length we are referring to the distance from one point to another. You could think of it from the START point to the FINISH point! Click on the below links for some examples Example No. 1 Example No. 2 Example No. 3  Lesson 2Remember in the last lesson we made some measurements using our pencils?? In this lesson we will be measuring the length of objects using different tools of measurement other than your pencils.
