CUSTOMARY MEASUREMENT CONVERSIONS

Today in class was very interesting. We started with a seating game that turned out to be a great review. We then began talking about converting customary measures (inches, feet, gallons, quarts, tons, etc.). Here are the lecture notes that were seen in class.

Here is a list of all the Customary Units we will be working with:

   CUSTOMARY UNITS

1 yard = 3 feet                                                     

1 mile = 5280 feet

1 cup = 8 ounces                    

1 quart = 2 pints

1 gallon = 4 quarts

1 ton = 2000 pounds

1 pound = 16 ounces

Monday we will start with a review and play a card game called "I have Who has"
