Pupils discover how to use the rotary cutter, cutting mat, and ruler to make quilt blocks. They make a 4-patch quilt block and write a paper on their first memories of a quilt. They determine how to sew a 1/4" seam and identify bed...

In this measurement worksheet, students measure distance with a provided ruler. Using the provided map scale, students determine the actual distance between objects. They may set up proportions to evaluate each situation.

In this measuring distance worksheet, students use a centimeter ruler to measure the distance between the dots for the animals in the zoo.

In these measurement worksheets, students measure objects in their classroom but don't use a ruler to measure. Students write what they measured and the length of the object. Students then measure the given objects in the classroom and...

Students study how to estimate the diameter of a tree, estimate the height of the tree using shadows, estimate the height of the tree using a ruler, and use tools for measuring trees.

Students make observations about mealworms using hand lenses, rulers, and cotton swabs. Students complete their own mealworm observation chart, then they share their observations with the class. This is one station out of five in an...

Third graders investigate the use of centimeters while measuring items with rulers which they construct. They examine the need for standard units of measure. They estimate the length of body parts before making the actual measurements.

Sixth graders investigate how sound is made by vibrating matter. They work with a ruler and a rubber band to produce different types of vibration which makes different pitches of sound. They record their observations of the noises made...

Second graders participate in a review of how to use rulers and yard sticks while collecting measurement information. They measure assigned body parts and chart the data on collection sheets. They make a spreadsheet with the information...

Pupils identify the concepts of density, mass, and volume that define the property of a substance. They also determine that the properties of materials, such as, density and volume, can be compared and measured by using rulers, balances,...

In this measurement activity, learners use a ruler to measure the various lines. Students write the lengths in centimeters on the provided lines.

In this bridge building worksheet, students follow a set of instructions, making a bridge using books, poster- board, a ruler, toy car and sheet of paper. 

In this measuring worksheet, students cut out a ruler on the page and measure the length and width of given pictures of parcels. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

Set up stations around your science lab to introduce youngsters to different equipment. They examine a beaker, graduated cylinder, ruler, balance, and thermometer. The said worksheet is not included, but you will find a few useful tips...

Third graders will sing 2 songs that are written and played by the teacher and relate to the task of measuring.They recognize and pick up a 1-foot standard ruler and be able to identify the marks on the ruler, including inch and parts of...

Students sketch a slope field for a given differential equation, given a slope field. They also match a slope field to a differential equation and match a slope field to a solution of a differential equation. Finally, students use a...

Pupils explore how to use a metric ruler to measure length, accurately read and record measurements taken in centimeters (cm) and millimeters (mm), and collect and analyze data using a stem and leaf.

Sixth graders use rubber bands, textbooks, pencils, rulers and yo-yos to experiment with the concept of vibrations. They observe changes in pitch according to the speed of vibrations and record their observations in a journal.

Students create checkerboards using paints, glue, rulers, and masking tape in this upper-elementary/middle level Art lesson. The lesson emphasizes the history of checkerboards, strategies and rules, and the checkerboard as an example of...

Second graders participate in a Scavenger Hunt to find out how long 1 cm is. They then find 10 objects that estimate to be 1 cm in length and record their findings on the table provided and check their estimates using a ruler.

Fifth graders collect height and feet measurements from classmates, analyze the data collected, and describe possible patterns in this Math lesson for the 5th grade classroom. Basic tools for measuring (graph paper, dot paper, rulers,...

Students identify and use descriptive writing and measurement terms to describe a student-created robot. Then they construct robots of materials available and then use AlphaSmarts or Danas to describe the robot using only the dimensions....

In this observation tools worksheet, students will compare how a lens, a ruler, and a balance can help them learn about the properties of objects. This worksheet is a graphic organizer.

Math comes alive in this interactive lesson, which prompts students to weigh small classroom-available items (erasers, pencils, rulers) as well as more obscure items that would need to be provided (a basket, a small toy car). Students...
