A demonstration of how different measuring equipment is used to measure different things. When we measure things like how tall we are, how much we weigh, or how far we can jump we use measuring equipment, for example, a ruler, measuring tape, weighing scales or a measuring jug. Measuring equipment has a scale on it so we can measure accurately. Children are shown measuring the distance jumped by friends taking part in a long jump competition.

Students could undertake similar measuring activities as the ones in this clip, including finding out how far they can jump, how tall they are or how much they weigh.
