Standard Measurement to the Quarter Inch: Vintage Staplers!
This is a nice little activity that I used with my 3rd graders, but would also be good for 2nd and 4th graders: Students cut out quarter inch calibrated rulers and then use it to measure the length and height of a variety of staplers, old and new, and then draw boxes that will hold the stapler. This comes with some very nice quarter inch rulers that you can print out, laminate and distribute to your students.
Fun, cheap and really good to teach your kids about measuring in quarter inch incremen
