l-first · Length

Full supplied source: MODEL paper flag starts at 4 cm and ends at 17 cm on a labelled ruler. Strip A is 11 cm; strip B is 16 cm. A job needs at least 15 cm. These are supplied readings, not measured classroom objects.

Q1 · Choose a useful unit and tool for the length of a small paper flag. Explain why.

Worked/acceptable response: cm and a labelled ruler; they measure the distance along the flag rather than mass/capacity.

Component: Attribute/unit/tool reason

Evidence: independently shown / shown with named cue / partial / not observed. A correct supplied result with adult computation is supported result, not independent reasoning.

Specific unrelated next teaching: Choose units for a new familiar empty box question.
