My classes enjoyed the competition while at the same time practicing measurement. I would recommend measuring each item and adjusting your answer key before beginning the game in case you want to accept other answers. I didn't realize that some lines were in the middle until I had turned some people away for wrong answers until they came back a second time and I had them measure in front of me. I think it was probably from me choosing a certain setting for printing not a fault in the product.
