Uncle Norm needs a hammock so he can relax in his backyard, but he just can’t figure out how to measure it correctly. Kevin takes his favourite Uncle to a construction site to meet a handyman that teaches him all about non-standard measurement – using found objects like sticks, rope, or even hands to measure.
The Gist: This episode is about non-standard measurement units and visual proportionality, and reinforces the notion that reliable measurement units can be derived from representational objects in the everyday world.
