Practice measurements with your scholars using this word problem. Because the answer is explained at the bottom of the page, this would work best as an all-class warm up. Cover up the answers until after kids have shared responses. They examine an image of a dog alongside a bar of squares, each of which represents one foot. Learners determine the approximate length of the dog which, it turns out, is eight feet long! Be sure to discuss the fact that this is a very large dog. The explanation provides a helpful visual.
