Length

Length measurements are used to measure how long, how tall or how far apart objects are.

Informal units when comparing lengths could be using finger lengths, hand spans, pace or a piece of string.

Area measurements are used to measure the amount of space a 2-D object takes up.

Informal units to measure area could be the palm of their hand, kinder square or a stone.

Mass

[/title][fusion_text]

Mass measurements are used to measure how much material there is in an object. It is sometimes confused with weight, which is how much pull gravity has on an object. Remember to keep in mind that something that is large may not have as much mass as something smaller. Think of a foam dice vs. a rock.
