Fun Measurement Challenge

Today we finished up our unit on Measurement.  After completing our post-test, we had to work with a partner to find out if the statements below were true or false. It was lots of fun!

• The circumference of your wrist is half the circumference of your neck.
• Your foot is the same length as the distance between your elbow and wrist.
• Your thumb is half the length of your index finger.
• The span between your thumb and index finger is the same as between your
• index finger and pinkie.
• The length between your knee and the floor is twice the length of your foot.
• The circumference of your wrist is the same as your ankle.
• The distance between your shoulder and fingertip is longer than the distance between your hip and ankle bone.
• The distance around your waist is double the distance around your calf.
• The length between your hip and your knee is the same as between your knee and ankle.
• The combined length of all your toes is the same as the length between your elbow and wrist.
