sure the length of their foot, their height, and the length of the classroom. It then asks them to use a thermometer and record the temperature of the classroom in degrees Celsius and to use a metric scale to weigh themselves in kilograms.

Answer:

This activity suits the interest in real-life experiences that young adolescents demonstrate.

Explanation:

The units of length are the most basic units of measurement which are used commonly in daily life. Weight and temperature are the next units of importance in a person's life.

When people think about distance they visualize what it looks like by comparing with known quantities.

For example, when we 20 fl oz we think about a coke bottle.

So, this thinking needs to be changed to the metric system.
