Alderman, Harry; And Others – 1974
The purpose of this module is to teach the basic metric measures of length, area, volume, capacity, mass, and temperature. It introduces students to metric prefixes, abbreviations, and unit conversions with the system. Illustrative and optional material compares metric measures to our familiar American standard measures. The purposes are…
