Here are some cross-curricular activities whil should help your kids understnad weight measurements and grammar. In this grammar and math lesson, learners read the book Skittles Riddles and practice counting and balancing skittles. They...

Linear measurement is the focus of this math lesson. Youngsters work in groups to build towers with blocks. They build towers represented on index cards and determine how many blocks taller one tower is.

Students identify nonstandard units of measurement and investigate area of objects. In this geometry lesson plan, students trace their hands and glue cereal pieces to the print to find the area.

Students use video integration to help them learn about non-standard measurements. In this measurements lesson, students watch a video about measurement. Students determine which non-standard measurement unit would be best to solve the...

An engaging lesson which has elementary learners measure weight to the nearest pound and construct and interpret a bar graph! They measure length using non-standard units and determine area using square tiles. Pupils round their birth...

Fifth and sixth graders engage in a series of activities which show them the importance of using different types of measurement strategies. One of the primary goals of the instructional activity is to show learners that measurement is...

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

Agriculture is truly a math-based profession! Help the dairy farmer determine the supplies needed to complete his barn. Using given dimensions, learners build equations and use units to determine the correct amount of materials.

Students explore a variety of ways of how to care for the environment in the nine lessons of this unit. They observe how to be responsible "Earth Kids."

In order to learn about the Pythagorean Theorem, young mathematicians investigate relations and patterns between different sides of a right triangle to look for possible relations among the squared sides. Once they have established the...

Oceanography experts use candy to construct a model of a bio-physical mooring that would test a variety of factors. Each piece of equipment to be included on the mooring is described within the write-up. As pupils gather the candies for...

Students explore the idea of having Benchmarks to estimate the length of given objects. Students demonstrate acquired knowledge of the basic units of length by making reasonable estimates. Students create a personal benchmark.

Students create squares of different sizes on a geoboard. They find and describe a pattern. Students use the pattern to determine the number of squares possible on a 10-by-10 geoboard. They create squares with a horizontal base (and...

Students explore cultures around the world. In this cross-curriculum geography lesson, students listen to This is the Way We Go to School , a Book about Children around the World , and locate various countries on the globe and a map....
