This video tutorial teaches how to measure objects to the nearest 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, and one whole by creating and reading a ruler. It explains the concept of halves and fourths using a number line, demonstrates how to create a ruler, and shows how to use it for precise measurements. The tutorial emphasizes the equivalence of fractions and the importance of accurate measurement.

How many halves make up a whole?

• Four

• Three

• Two

• One

If you divide a half into two equal parts, what do you get?

• Sixths

• Thirds

• Eighths

• Fourths

What is another name for 2/4 on a number line?

• Three fourths

• One whole

• One half

• One fourth

Why might you round a measurement to the nearest whole number?

• To save time

• To avoid fractions

• When precision is not necessary

• To make calculations easier

What is the first step in creating a ruler from a number line?

• Mark the fourths

• Mark the halves

• Add an outline

• Mark the whole numbers

On a ruler, what does 2/4 represent?

• Two wholes

• Three fourths

• One half

• One fourth

What pattern is observed when measuring with fourths on a ruler?

• The pattern only applies to halves

• The pattern repeats for each whole number

• The pattern is random

• The pattern changes with each whole number
