This easy sheet focuses on choosing between inches and feet by sorting six items, like a pencil, classroom, and gym, into small or large categories. Five fill-in-the-blank questions explore unit comparisons such as "100 centimeters = 1 meter" and reasonable estimates for everyday objects. Four true-or-false statements wrap things up, reinforcing that estimating before measuring is a smart math habit second graders should practice often.
