Key to Metric Measurement

With these workbooks, students learn how to measure in metric units. The metric system is the only one used in international commerce and communication, and it is becoming more prevalent in the United States. Students completing this series will be more comfortable with the metric system as adults. The many creative activities in Key to Metric Measurement are designed to help students learn at a careful pace and may be done individually or in groups, with some specific team projects in each book. Interesting measurement activities involve the use of real examples from many countries, such as maps of Mexico and Japan, and a train schedule from China.
