Ladies and gentlemen, allow us to introduce The Women and Men of Measurement! »»-------------¤-------------««»»-------------¤-------------«« LYRICS: We are the women and men of measurement; if there’s a distance, we find the length of it. We know we can always put twelve inches inside a foot. And one yard just won’t be complete if it does not contain three feet. One inch is what you’ve got if you’re looking at the top of a bottle a’ pop. On your thumb there’s about one inch from your knuckle to your fingertip. We are the women and men of measurement; if there’s a distance, we find the length of it. The length of the folder where your work is put measures out to just one foot. You’ll find a foot if you just look at the height of the parrot on my hook. A football field has one hundred marks; each one is a yard apart. At the plate with a softball bat, a yard is about what you’re looking at. We are the women and men of measurement; if there’s a distance, we find the length of it. Open our fingers a pinch and make an inch; then make our hands look just like a foot. Put them three times as far and make a yard; now we know how long they are! This video addresses the following Common Core Standards: 4.MD (Solve problems involving measurement and conversion of measurement from a larger unit to a smaller unit.) 5.MD (Convert like measurement units within a given measurement) (Customary Measurements)
