Description: Children in grades 1-2 have difficulty in making accurate estimations in many areas of the curriculum. It is often hard for them to visualize a particular size, much less know what the correct corresponding measurement would be. This activity was designed to provide an opportunity to use children's knowledge of measurement in making accurate measurements and estimations. From the Columbia Education Center collection of math mini-lessons.
