To solve this problem, we need to decide whether
centimeters (cm) or
meters (m) is the better unit to measure each object.
Here’s a simple rule:
- Use
centimeters (cm) for small things — like toys, fruits, socks, bottles.
- Use
meters (m) for big things — like houses, giraffes, airplanes, rockets.
Let’s go one by one:
1.
Teddy bear → Small toy →
cm
2.
House → Big building →
m
3.
Giraffe → Tall animal →
m
4.
Airplane → Very large vehicle →
m
5.
Flower → Small plant →
cm
6.
Sock → Small clothing item →
cm
7.
Pineapple → Fruit you hold in hand →
cm
8.
Rocket → Huge spacecraft →
m
9.
Water bottle → You carry it →
cm
Now match each picture with the correct unit from the bottom strip.
Final Answer:
Teddy bear: cm
House: m
Giraffe: m
Airplane: m
Flower: cm
Sock: cm
Pineapple: cm
Rocket: m
Water bottle: cm
