 * TLW create a ruler of nonstandard units and use it to measure common objects found in the classroom. ||  ||   ||
 * TLW create a ruler using foot-long units and use it to measure common objects found in the classroom in feet. ||  ||   ||
 * TLW use a ruler to measure the lengths of objects in inches. ||  ||   ||
 * TLW create a measuring tape marked in yards to measure objects of appropriate lengths. ||  ||   ||
 * Given a cm ruler or tape measure, TLW measure the length of an object in centimeters. ||  ||   ||
 * TLW create or use a commerically-made tape measure marked in meters to measure objects of appropriate lengths. ||  ||   ||
 * TLW explore measuring the same object with different units of measure and discuss the appropriateness of the unit for measuring the object. ||  ||   ||
 * TLW add and subtract lengths of objects using the same standard unit of measure to solve problems. ||  ||   ||
 * TLW demonstrate scientific processes related to observations of the natural world. ||  ||   ||
 * TLW compare lengths of objects by using standard units and determine the difference. ||  ||   ||
 * Given a balance and two objects, TLW determine which item is heavier/lighter or if the objects are of equal weight. ||  ||   ||
 * TLW measure the approximate weight of objects by using a balance with non-standard units. ||  ||   ||
 * Given two dissimilar containers, TLW determine which has the greater capacity. ||  ||   ||
 * TLW measure the volume of liquids using common measuring tools. ||
