Paste this resource into your lesson plans like you'd paste a tile onto a mural. Given a diagram of a tile mural with rectilinear figures, future artists determine the perimeters and areas of the figures. They must then develop their own...

A instructional activity involving mapping, the use of a compass, writing and following directions, and exploring the first two themes of geography is here for you. Learners create original maps that show the routes they take through...

Youngsters show understanding of accurate division of whole number, decimals, fractions, and percents using manipulatives (candies). They use white boards to demonstrate their understanding of representing numbers as defined in the...

Learners use materials to build, investigate, and draw two-dimensional shapes (polygons). They combine the shapes they have built and draw from the pile to begin a round-robin activity to name and determine the attributes of a selection...

Students plant seeds and watch them sprout. Once growing plants are placed in different conditions and students record data about their growth. They graph the data.

Pupils discuss situations when it is useful to know exact weight of object as opposed to estimated weight, estimate weight of various items, weigh them on scale using ounces and pounds, and compare their weights on Guess Your Best...

For this metric weights worksheet, students read 10 sentences and from two choices of metric weight units, fill in the most correct answer. Example: A turkey weighs about 2 (kilograms, grams).

In this converting imperial units activity, students complete converting 12 metric units from imperial units to metric or vice versa.

In this length measurements worksheet, students play a game with a partner that helps them measure the three lengths on the pie charts. Students spin a pencil or paper clip to find the measurement and use a ruler to draw the length from...

Students discover what the latitude and longitude of their location is. They start walking and measure their shadow. They fill in a chart to discover the approximate time.

Students explore the size of a kilometer and the time it takes to cover this distance. They develop a concept of a km. They measure a distance of 1 km and the time taken to cover it.

Students compute the area of triangles in a computer program. In this measurement lesson plan, students complete 5 easy, 5 medium, and 5 hard problems.

Here are eight real-life problems for your class to solve when learning to calculate perimeter and area. Because www.K6Math.com is stamped across the background of the page, you may not want to use it as a homework, but rather use the...

Get things moving with this elementary science unit on simple machines. Through a series of nine lessons including teacher demonstrations, hands-on activities, and science experiments, young scientists learn about forces, motion,...

Explore the concept of multiplication by using arrays. Classmates use arrays to gain a better understanding of multiplication. They break arrays apart to model the distributive property of multiplication over addition. The relationship...

Students examine and discuss the differences between clocks they are shown. Using the internet, they research how people used to tell time before clocks. They review what the long and short hand on the clock represent and practice...

Your geometers are used to finding the perimeter of a square or rectangle, so give them something different this time! With this lesson plan, small groups will receive a picture of a shoreline and calculate the perimeter. The website...

Students calculate the time difference between Beijing, China and their local community. They discuss how time difference affects intercultural communication.

Learners become familiar with the various coins in our money system as well as amount of each coin. They help develop their ability to count change and find different ways to show equal amounts.

Geometers calculate the area of plane surfaces using the formulas for the area of a square, rectangle, and triangle. They develop the formula for calculating the total surface area of two geometric solids: the cube and rectangular prism.

Students work on their estimation skills while enhancing their balancing skills. They walk on a rope on the classroom floor while measuring their balance skills.

Learners analyze how the parts of a system go together and how these parts depend on each other. They comprehend the forces in terms of strength and direction. Students observe, measure and describe weather indicators.

Learners participate in guessing their partners' hidden Lego pieces from their verbal clues. They work in partners to accomplish their goals. They are meeting a variety of math standards by completing this activity.

Pupils study rectangles. In this math lesson, students use numbers, measurements and geometry to draw rectangles of varying sizes.
