Measurement DLO

Kia ora bloggers, in Te Ngahere we have recently been learning how to use a measuring tape to measure accurately. We had to create a DLO about measurement so it could teach other people about measurement and also how to measure accurately. Accurately means that it has to be measured correctly and exactly that number. I learnt to place the measuring tape properly on a flat surface, also to start from 0 all of the time. We all had to make sure we were measuring straight. We used a 8m measuring tape and we also used a measuring tape that people use for dressing because it helped us work easier just like using it to measure how far two pens are apart. Have you learned how to use a measuring tape properly?
