Kick Off Your Informal Measurement Unit With Us!

Get ready to make measurement more fun with brand-new resources from Teach Starter! This year, we’re excited to help even our littlest students make sense of the world of measurement with engaging activities surrounding informal units of length!

As teachers, we know it’s not easy to find the resources you need to teach little learners the foundations of measurement. That’s why we’ve created a fun set of hands-on materials perfect for those introductory lessons surrounding non-standard measurement.

Printable Non-Standard Measurement Rulers

This printable resource download includes a variety of fun non-standard unit rulers for students to use when learning the concept of measurement in early years. The fun designs will catch your students’ attention and keep them engaged throughout your informal measurement lessons. The rulers come in units of various sizes, which helps develop an understanding that to compare objects, the unit of measurement must be the same size.

We’ve included the following fun ruler options:

• Caterpillars
• Flowers
• Paper clips
• Avocados
• Lemons
• Ladybugs
• Bees, and
• Mushrooms 

These are great for your guided maths groups or your maths centre activities.
