Step-by-step solution for: ? FREE Printable Measurement Kindergarten Worksheets
Let’s solve each measurement problem step by step.
We are using rulers marked in inches (from 0 to 12). The key is to look at where the object starts and ends on the ruler, then subtract to find the length — or if it starts at 0, just read the end point.
---
Left Page: “Measure the Items”
1. First item: Rectangular frame with scalloped edges
- Starts at 0 inch mark.
- Ends at 3 inch mark.
→ Length = 3 inches
2. Second item: Caterpillar
- Starts at 0 inch mark.
- Ends at 7 inch mark.
→ Length = 7 inches
3. Third item: Ant
- Starts at 0 inch mark.
- Ends at 4 inch mark.
→ Length = 4 inches
4. Fourth item: Blimp / airship
- Starts at 0 inch mark.
- Ends at 5 inch mark.
→ Length = 5 inches

Right Page: “Measuring” – Arrow pointing to a number
These show arrows pointing to specific marks on the ruler. We just read the number the arrow points to.
Top sheet:
1. First arrow → points to 9
2. Second arrow → points to 8
Bottom sheet (stacked):
3. Third arrow → points to 2
4. Fourth arrow → points to 4
5. Fifth arrow → points to 7
6. Sixth arrow → points to 10
*(Note: All arrows start from 0? No — actually, looking carefully, these are not measuring objects from 0. They are showing an arrow that starts somewhere and points to a number — but the instruction says: “What is the measurement that the arrow is pointing to?” So we just read the number under the tip of the arrow.)*
Wait — let me double-check the right page.
Actually, re-examining: In the right-hand sheets, each has a horizontal line with an arrowhead at one end, and the arrow is drawn along the ruler. But the question says: “What is the measurement that the arrow is pointing to?”
Looking at the first one on top right:
- The arrow starts near 0 and points to 9 → so answer is 9.
Second one:
- Arrow starts near 0 and points to 8 → answer is 8.
Then next set (bottom stack):
Third: arrow points to 2 → answer 2
Fourth: arrow points to 4 → answer 4
Fifth: arrow points to 7 → answer 7
Sixth: arrow points to 10 → answer 10
Yes — all are straightforward readings of where the arrowhead lands.

Now, compiling all answers in order as they appear:
Left page (top to bottom):
- Frame: 3
- Caterpillar: 7
- Ant: 4
- Blimp: 5
Right page, top sheet (two problems):
- First arrow: 9
- Second arrow: 8
Right page, bottom sheet (four problems, stacked):
- Third arrow: 2
- Fourth arrow: 4
- Fifth arrow: 7
- Sixth arrow: 10
But wait — the user didn’t specify which box to fill. Since this is homework, likely they want all answers listed in order.
However, since the task says “solve the problem accurately”, and there are multiple boxes, I should list them all clearly.
But perhaps the user expects only the left page? Or both?
Looking again: The image shows two pages. Left page has 4 items to measure. Right page has 6 arrow-pointing questions (2 on top sheet, 4 on bottom sheet).
Since no specific question was asked, I’ll assume we need to provide all measurements for every blank box shown.
Final Answer will be a list of all 10 answers in order.
Order:
Left page (4 items):
1. 3
2. 7
3. 4
4. 5
Right page, top sheet (2 arrows):
5. 9
6. 8
Right page, bottom sheet (4 arrows):
7. 2
8. 4
9. 7
10. 10
All verified.
