Grade 4-7?This lively book presents ideas and methods for measuring all sorts of things, from distances to weights to temperatures, from trees and flagpoles to public opinion and the strength of toilet tissue. The directions are clear and the activities creative; some of them have quite tasty results. The format is clean and uncluttered; full-color photographs and diagrams fit the text. A varied group of youngsters are shown carrying out the projects. An excellent resource that will put students' problem-solving skills to good use.?Susan Chmurynsky, East Kentwood Freshman Campus, MI
