Measurement Reasonable Unit - Time (metric)

This math topic focuses on identifying the most appropriate metric units of time for various real-world events. It challenges learners to decide between units such as days, hours, minutes, seconds, and milliseconds based on the context of activities like driving across North America, a subway ride, dining at a restaurant, the movement of a hummingbird’s wing, the duration of a movie, running a football field, and sending mail. This is a foundational exercise in measurement reasoning suited for an introductory level.
