At the end of the lesson the students are expected to:

1. Identify Horizontal, Vertical, and Circumferential

measurement. Indicator 1
2. Discuss the proper procedure in taking body measurements
3. Execute the proper taking of Body Measurements Students read
the objectives
Integration

- Class, don’t you think that taking body measurement took

place during ancient times?
- Ancient measurement of length was based on the human
body, for example the length of a foot, the length of a
stride, the span of a hand, and the breadth of a thumb.
There were unbelievably many different measurement
systems developed in early times, most of them only being
used in a small locality. One which gained a certain
universal nature was that of the Egyptian cubit developed
around 3000 BC. The units of length used in ancient India
included the dhanus, or dhanush (bow), the krosa (cry, or
cow-call) and the yojana (stage).

Today, in taking body measurement is we have to use Tape

Measure.

Indicator 1

Tape measure today is like this. It has inches which are divided
into centimeters. Take note that 1 inch is equivalent to 2.54cm.

(Do conversion)

 Convert 50 inches to centimeters.?

Solutions:

 We know that 1 inch is equal to 2.54 centimeters.

Therefore, 50 inches = 50 x 2.54 = 127 centimeters

C. Lesson Proper:

Kinds of Body Measurements:

1. Horizontal Measurements
1. Shoulder width- taken from one shoulder bone tip to
the other with the back-shoulder measurement taken as
shown below. The front shoulder measurement is taken
similarly at the front.

2. Bust point width- taken as the distance between the

tips of the bust.

2. Vertical Measurements
1. Front figure- taken from the base of the neck to the waistline,
passing over the fullest part of the bust.

2. Bust point height- taken from the base of the neck to the tip of
the bust, or from the waistline to the tip of the bust.
3. Shirt length- taken from the base of the neck to the desired
length of the shirt

4. Sleeve length- taken from the tip of the shoulder to the desired
length of the sleeve.

3. Circumferential Measurements

1. Bust line- taken around the front and across the back over
the fullest part of the bust.

2. Waistline- taken around the waistline.

3. Hipline- taken around the fullest part of the abdomen

across the buttocks
 4. Armhole/armscye- taken from a shoulder tip around the
armpit back to the shoulder tip.

5. Arm girth- taken around the fullest part of the arm. Indicator 9

6. Wrist- taken around the wrist just below the knuckles of

the hand.

Class, long before the early Subanen people has to take Indicator 7
measurements through this terminology since tape measure is not
yet founded during earlier time.
1. dhopa - ‘DISTANCE FROM FINGERTIPS TO
OPPOSITE SHOULDER’. dhopa is a unit of measurement
roughly equivalent to one meter. It is the distance from the
fingertips on one hand to the opposite shoulder. It is used to
measure items which are bought by length such as fabric, fishing
line, rope, cord, and wire. As it measures a part of a whole, it takes
nog.
