You may start where you are comfortable, but the goal is to measure proficiently in halves, quarters, eighths, and sixteenths, so try each of them. If you get a good score on one of your games show Mr. Stratton. He will put your name on the board, and at the end of class we will declare a winner of the ruler game for the period.
