Quarter 4 – Module 3:
Measuring Length
Introductory Message
For the facilitator:
As a facilitator, you are expected to orient the learners on how to
use this module. You also need to keep track of the learners' progress
while allowing them to manage their own learning at home.
Furthermore, you are expected to encourage and assist the learners as
they do the tasks included in the module.

For the learner:

As a learner, you must learn to become responsible of your own

 Measuring and Estimating
Lesson
Objects Using Appropriate
1 Measuring Tools and Unit
of Length in m or cm

Let Us Learn!
After going through this module you
are expected to identify, use,
estimate and measure length using
centimeter and meter.

In this module, you are expected to learn the following

 Identify the appropriate measuring tools in measuring
length and unit of length in m or cm.
 Use the appropriate measuring tool in measuring
objects in m or cm.
 estimates and measures length using meter or
centimeter (M2ME-IVc-26).

 Let Us Study

In measuring the length, two units are used, the

centimeter (cm) and the meter (m). These are metric units
that are used to measure objects' length, width, height,
and thickness.

Centimeter is used to measure shorter/smaller objects

and written as cm. Objects of shorter lengths are
measures using a centimeter ruler.

8 cm 3 cm 6 cm
Meter is used to measure longer/larger objects. Meter
is written as m. One meter is equal to one hundred
centimeters.

100 cm = 1 m

Meter sticks are used for the measurement of longer

lengths.

 Centimeter (cm) and Meter (m) are metric units of

length.
 Centimeter is used to measure shorter/smaller
objects.
Objects of shorter lengths are measures using a
centimeter ruler.

 Meter is used to measure longer/bigger objects. One

meter is equal to one hundred centimeters.

Routine Problems

Gab ate 8 cm suman in the morning

and 5 cm suman in the afternoon. How
many centimeters of suman did he eat in
all?

13
 1. What is asked?
How many centimeters of suman did he eat in all?
2. What are the given facts?
8 cm suman and 5 cm suman
3. What is the word clue?
In all
4. What operation to be used?
Addition
5. What is the number sentence?
8 cm + 5 cm =N

8 cm + 5 cm =N
6. What is the complete answer?
8 cm + 5cm =13 cm

Therefore, Gab ate 13 cm of suman in one whole day.

Routine Problem Solving involves using at least one of

the four arithmetic operations that are practical in nature.
Non-Routine Problems

Aling Mila bought 4 m of red ribbon. She needs a total

length of 8 m. How many more meters of red ribbon does she
need to buy?

1. What is asked?

14
 How many more meters of red ribbon does she need to
buy?
2. What are the given facts?
4 m of red ribbon, total length of red ribbon 8 m.
3. What is the word clue?
Many more meters
4. What operation to be used?
Subtraction
5. What is the number sentence?
8m–4m=N
8m

4m N

6. What is the complete answer?

8m–4m=4m

Therefore, Aling Nina needs 4 m red ribbons to have a

total of 8m in length.

Non Routine Problem solving does not have an

immediately apparent strategy for solving them. Often
times, these problems can solve in multiple ways.
