length, weight, mass, volume, temperature, density, time, and so on is essential to understanding science. To find out more about unfamiliar objects, scientists often measure them using appropriate tools. Measuring is a skill that assumes knowledge of measuring instruments and systems and the ability to communicate the results of the measurements taken.

using appropriate measuring instruments and units of measurement in the SI metric system to qualify observations for precision and accuracy

ordering of things by magnitude, such as area, length, volume, mass; processes to quantify observations; involves the use of instruments and the skills needed to use them effectively

This is very obvious but if you don't measure, how will you know if you have gained? Make sure you learn how to measure and do it properly before you start.
