Party Volumes: Measurement
Second graders explore liters and milliliters. They estimate volume and accurately measure the volume. Students plan a party and measure volume using liters and milliliters as part of the planning process.
Curated OER
Supermarket Shopping
Students participate in studying that a kilogram is a standard unit of measurement. They measure practical objects using length, mass, and capacity. They measure a number of supermarket items using units and scales.

Measurement Investigations 2
Students complete a number of practical measuring investigations, with an emphasis on accuracy of measuring and communication of their findings. They examine how to measure by first becoming aware of the physical attributes of objects...
Curated OER
Measurement Investigations 1
Fifth graders find perimeters, areas, and volumes of everyday objects and state the precision. They work in small groups in order to take measurements, perform calculations, and write a group report about the investigation.
Curated OER
Slosh, Dribble, and Plop
Students recognize the need for a standard unit of volume. They estimate and measure to the nearest liter. Also they relate the liter to the familiar everyday containers.
Curated OER
Oranges and Stopwatches
Students measure various attributes of an orange. They discuss the attributes of an orange that can be measured, develop a list of attributes and describe how they can measure it, and rotate through four stations measuring the volume,...
Curated OER
Boxing On
Students participate in five center activities in which they construct three dimensional objects using cubic centimeter manipulatives such as sugar cubes and toothpaste boxes. They determine the volume of the objects. They build a model...
Curated OER
Time Zones
Young scholars are able to read and also use a variety of timetables and charts. They perform calculations with time, including 24-hour clock times and time zones. These are very important concepts that Students probably have to bear in...
Curated OER
Cool Times with Heat
Students work with thermometers to complete problems about temperature. They investigate cooling patterns, how location affects temperature, and what happens when water having different temperature is mixed. They measure temperature in...
Curated OER
Using A Ruler
High schoolers investigate the concept of measurement and using a ruler with accuracy up to 1/16 of an inch. They practice using measurement with a ruler in different contexts. To help with the presentation of the lesson plan a...
Curated OER
Learning to Measure
Fourth graders explore measuring with English unit rulers. They practice measuring in fractions of inches. Students discuss how to place the ruler when measuring an object. They begin measuring using rulers with 1/4 inch increments and...
Curated OER
Volume
Pupils participate in a teacher demonstration of the water level in different beakers to investigate the measurement of volume. Next, working in small groups, they replicate the demonstration and determine how the measurements in the...
Curated OER
Newton's Laws with Kick Balls
Eighth graders participate in different activities that reinforce Newton's Laws. Activity begins with question/answer session about Newton's first and second laws. Students then try to bounce kick ball off of a wall to get it to given...
Curated OER
Measuring With Fluids
Students investigate the concept of measurement for capacity and they use real containers to be filled of different sizes. Students use the scoops as the number of units for counting the capacity volume. Then they order the containers by...
