I suppose you could, but it would be very difficult and you would have to worry about the accuracy. Start at the beginning marker on one side and lay it down til it stops. Have someone mark the ending measurement, start again, keeping track of the footage. Measure all sides of the property and then you should be able to figure the acreage fairly closely.
They make big rolling tape measures you can buy at the big hardware stores for this purpose. It would be much more accurate using this type of "tape measure' than a small square one. Many people do use these.

It depends which property you are measuring. For linear dimensions a tape measure would be best
I would use a tape measure. This would require one person to help me, since the tape measure would have to be held at both ends. Even if the classroom is longer than the tape measure, I could just mark the full extent of the tape and then measure again from there.

To measure the footprint of a property, you can use a measuring tape to measure the length and width of the building, house, or structure. Multiply the length by the width to get the square footage of the footprint. Alternatively, you can use software tools like Google Earth or property survey reports to obtain property dimensions and calculate the footprint.
