Teaching Metric Measurement?


Recommended Posts

Is it for learning or converting?

For learning my kids just learn what the prefix meant.  For example (link)

 

giga    G 10Billion

mega    M 10Million

kilo  k 103 Thousand

deci  d 10-1 Tenth

centi c 10-2 Hundredth

milli m 10-3 Thousandth

micro μ 10-6 Millionth

nano n 10-9 Billionth

 

For converting fun, we made the Metric Pyramid and the bookmarks.  Templates in below gov link
