In this animal habitat worksheet, students read, analyze and solve 5 scenarios involving mathematics and animal habitats. Students work out each decision they decide as correct and write out a proposal for each one.

Fifth graders convert kilometers to miles and calculate the range that historical aircraft can travel. They choose destinations by distance that can be traveled without refueling.

Students participate in an hands-on construction of an instrument to measure wind speed.

Sixth graders translate sports vocabulary words from English to Spanish and complete money problems containing decimals. In this money and sports lesson plan, 6th graders use words to communicate to each other.

In this unit conversions worksheet, students solve 13 problems using given conversion factors to convert measurements from one unit of measurement to another.

Students participate in a Metric Olympics event and use metric measurements to measure actual performances in their events. They throw a plastic straw for a javelin event, participate in a long jump and high jump event, and a variety of...

For this metric worksheet, students read about the metric system and British system of measurement. They answer 58 questions about the metric system and convert from one unit of measurement to another.

Students solve problems using the metric system. In this algebra lesson, students convert between the metric system and the Imperial system. They use these two systems to solve real life problems.

Students apply estimation strategies and proportional reasoning to determine a scale comparing the planetary bodies to Earth. They convert measurements of time and distance using scientific notation. Both the metric and customary units...

In this metric system worksheet, students convert from English units of measurements to metric units of measurements for length. They also convert length within the metric system.

In this SI units learning exercise, students read about converting from SI units to non-SI units. They are given a conversion chart and they use it to convert from one unit of measurement to another in seven problems.

students convert the temperature readings from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit. they predict and create a graph of what the graph of altitude (x-axis) versus temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (y-axis) might look like.

In this unit conversion worksheet, students solve six problems where they convert from one metric unit to another using the process of dimensional analysis.

Students examine three seismograms of a recent South American earthquake recorded by USGS stations. They measure the S-P distance and use a P and S wave travel-time graph to find the epicenter distance for each seismogram. In addition,...

Students plan a weekend car trip to Seattle Washington. They leave Friday afternoon and arrive back Sunday afternoon.

Second graders use a map scale to determine distances between cities in the state of Florida.

Students create a table of ordered pairs, using variables (dependent and independent), writing equations, converting metric and standard measurements for distance using mileposts.

In this planets worksheet, pupils fill out a chart where they fill in the distance each planet is from the Earth, and how much travel time in years and hours it would take to get there. Students do this for 8 planets.

Students convert U.S. customary measurements into larger or smaller units with the help of conversion charts. They are explained that they are going to use conversion charts in problem solving situations. Pupils use a calculator to...

Students use the metric system to convert equations. They use a conversion table to change from metric units to the units they are more comfortable with (Fahrenheit temperatures, miles, quarts, pounds.) Students use algebraic equations...

Students study wind speed and collect wind speed data. In this wind speed lesson, students visit a website to learn about the local wind speed forecast for their week. Students discuss wind and wind speed. Students collect wind speed...

Students study the egg code to learn about sea ice. In this sea ice instructional activity, students discuss and view a diagram to learn about the egg code when describing sea ice and its thickness. Students work in groups to play a game...

Students create a scaled solar system model using colorful beads. In this space science activity, students convert AU units into metric measurements. They arrange the planets according to their distances from the sun.

Students write and solve equations converting between metric and standard measurement as they travel southeast on the Al-Can Highway.
