This reproducible master shows the parts of a standard micrometer scale, the steps in reading a standard micrometer, and related exercises for the students to complete. Use this reproducible master to reinforce your students’ understanding of how to read a standard US customary micrometer. RM 2-2: Reading a Vernier Micrometer. This reproducible master shows an example of reading a Vernier micrometer, and provides related exercises for the students. Use this reproducible master to reinforce your students’ understanding of how to read a Vernier micrometer. RM 2-3: Reading a Metric Micrometer. This reproducible master shows the scale divisions of a metric micrometer. Use this reproducible master to reinforce classroom discussion of reading a metric micrometer. RM 2-4: Handling a Micrometer. This reproducible master shows the proper ways to handle inside and outside micrometers to ensure accurate readings. Use this reproducible master to reinforce classroom instruction in the use of inside and outside micrometers. Lesson Slides LS 2-1: Parts of an Outside Micrometer. This slide identifi es the various parts of an outside micrometer. The parts identifi ed are applicable to all types of outside micrometers. LS 2-2: Parts of a Dial Caliper. This slide identifi es the various parts of a dial caliper. This slide can be used to familiarize student with dial calipers, and also as a visual aid for explaining how to take different types of measurements with a caliper.
