Metric conversion chart for students to use when converting between different units of measurement. Can be used for length, capacity, or mass. Students use the chart to show how the metric system is based on 10's. The decimal moves to the left or right however many units the new unit is from the starting unit. For example: To change from 3.25 m to mm, you need to move the decimal point 3 to the right. It would be 3,250 mm. Once kids get the hang of using the chart converting is a breeze
