This hard sheet pushes first graders into advanced measurement reasoning with both unit types. Part A has four multiple-choice problems about toy trains measured in cubes, comparing belts, scarves, and ties in inches, and lining up paper clips end to end. Part B has five fill-in-the-missing-measurement questions involving jump ropes measured in hands, finding differences between three worm lengths, and figuring out a ball is 5 inches shorter than an 11-inch bat.
