Converting Measurements Project
Have you ever taken a trip to another country, or have you ever dreamed of doing so? There are a lot of beautiful places in the world, and each one is unique and special.
One of the ways certain countries may be different than others is in their standard units of measure. For example, in the United States, the most common way to measure a long distance is in miles, but in many other countries, it’s kilometers.
In this project, you’ll be measuring some items around your home and converting their measurements from one system to another.
For each section, please choose a different item. You will need to measure the item yourself for the first measurement, then show the equation and calculation you did to arrive at the second measurement.

Paragraph question
When we think about other parts of the world and the different ways they do things, sometimes we can tend to think that our way is the best way.
