Length (cm, mm, m) worksheets for Grade 2 (Elementary School)
What this unit covers
Everything rests on two relationships: one tenth of 1 cm is 1 mm, and 100 cm is 1 m. Starting from Measuring with a Ruler, children restate lengths between cm and mm and between m and cm, then add and subtract within one unit and across units, including the cases that carry and borrow.
Writing 8 cm 5 mm as 805 mm rather than 85 mm stands out, since the cm part is not multiplied by 10 during the conversion. In subtraction that needs borrowing, 1 cm is never exchanged for 10 mm, so the mm parts are subtracted smaller from larger and the mm in the answer comes out too big.
