This hard worksheet challenges second graders with four multiple-choice problems involving measurement reasoning, like finding how much longer a 25 cm book is than an 18 cm pencil and converting feet to inches. Five fill-in-the-blank questions then test deeper facts, such as "100 centimeters in a meter" and comparing a 6-inch marker to a 12-inch ruler.
A strong workout for measurement thinking and unit conversion fluency.
