Sixth graders create a grid of their fictitious store. In this measurement lesson, 6th graders use a computer to measure out the floor of their store and create furniture, doorways, windows, and more. This lesson includes directions for...

In this metric conversion activity, students solve 12 problems in which larger metric units are converted to smaller ones. Included are metric conversions of length and weight. No examples are provided.

In this Quadratic Koch worksheet, students fill out a chart about the edges, edge length, total length, and different areas of a snowflake. Students do this for 8 snowflakes.

Students construct ratios using the hand as data. They use examples of cortical and trabecular bone found in the long bones to measure circumference, diameter, length, and weight of long bones. They perform computations using growth...

In this mental math activity, students calculate area, volume, perimeter, and convert units in two mental math tests of ten problems each. 

In this measurement worksheet, students complete each of the statements with the correct word related to the metric system. Then they match each letter marked with a number to those at the bottom of the sheet to complete the answer to...

Students create a ruler for the purpose of measurement using the standard and metric systems. The rulers are of different lengths and are compared to one another. Then students make conversions of different lengths using both systems of...

Students make origami frogs to race. After the race they measure the distance raced, collect the data, enter it into a chart. They then find the mean, median, and mode of the data. Next, students enter this data into Excel at which time...

Young scholars, in groups, estimate measurments and then select the tools needed and measure various items at Black Bayou Lake refuge.

Students identify the five main crops of Kansas and crops that are produced in other states. The categorize the types of fruits and seeds of each plant and measure each to compare the length of each.

Students measure the temperature of three water sources. They collect data points every second for twenty five seconds for each sample using Lego Robolab temperature sensors, complete a worksheet, and analyze the data.

In this solving quadrilateral word problems worksheet, students draw figures to identify quadrilaterals, use angles to find the ones missing, and explain classification. Students solve six problems.

Middle schoolers construct a three-dimensional model of a city using both similar and congruent figures and geometric transformations. City must have at least ten buildings with each building labeled and may be constructed out of paper...

Scholars learn about the metric system and produce a presentation on how to convert within the metric system. They then develop a brochure in support of legislation requiring the use of the metric system.

Pupils investigate the concepts related to the study of polygons. They specifically look at how angles is related. The lesson includes specific examples and dialogue to be used by the teacher during direct instruction and independent...

Young artists divide a piece of graph paper into sections using rectangles, squares, and triangles. They then fill each section with patterns of shape and color. Elementary graders describe how their patterns are organized. Secondary...

Students accurately use a metric ruler to measure length. They find a sum of multiple metric measurements.

Students comprehend the basic units of measurement, scale, plotting, and basic grids. Students practice their estimation and measuring skills and will demonstrate their ability to work well in groups.

Students complete 6 units to learn about Ancient Greece and the Olympic games through physical education activities as well as math activities. In this Ancient Greece lesson, students complete multiple activities in 6 lessons including...

Learners are given a brown paper sack filled with different types of object for them to measure. They are to first estimate the length and then measure them in centimeters and millimeters.

Young scholars practice measuring using the metric system and millimeters. They measure their thumbs and record their findings. Students record the findings of their classmates and find the average or mean for the two groups.

You don't need a scale to determine weight. This activity provides a way to use the concepts of air pressure and surface area to determine the weight of a vehicle by calculating the amount of weight each tire supports.

Sixth graders calculate perimeter of rectangles with different dimensions.  In this perimeter lesson, 6th graders define length, width and perimeter.  Students complete a perimeter activity using a web tool to change the...
