The video tutorial covers the concept of measuring objects using different units, specifically centimeters and meters. It explains that larger units like meters require fewer units to measure the same object compared to smaller units like centimeters. The tutorial provides examples of measuring various objects and guides on choosing the appropriate unit for measurement. It also includes a higher-order thinking section where students decide which unit to use for larger objects. The lesson concludes with an assessment to reinforce the understanding of the concepts taught.
