Tape measures all around

2 cm or 127 cm ? We were using tape measures( not rulers!!!!) to see the difference. We measured objects around the classroom.
We measured whiteboards, body parts,computers, desks and even Mr R!!!! We learnt that tape measures are bigger, better and much more flexible than our rigid old rulers. Tape measures have inches, millimetres, centimetres and metres when school rulers only have centimetres and millimetres. So it was clear that tape measures are best!!
