Ms. Sowin's Measurement Activity

Engagement:

In order to get Ms. Sowin's science students a little more invested in measurement, I have included a screencast anecdote about a red-bellied black snake hiding in a bush in my backyard. measurement seems to become so much more interesting when you're referring to a poisonous creature almost 5 feet long. (It might take a few rulers to sort this problem out though.)
