For example
Measure the classroom in steps and the step is your unit.
In Grade 2
Children measure the same object in steps, then in hand spans, and see why the unit has to be agreed.
Watch out for
Children often give a number with no unit, saying the desk is six. Six what matters as much as the six does.
Say it at home
Whenever your child measures something, ask six what, so the unit gets said out loud.
