In this geometry worksheet, students differentiate between direct and indirect measurements. They create a table with their findings. There are 9 questions.

Young scholars examine how trees are measured and the different methods used.  In this density lesson students divide into groups and practice the different methods.

Students utilize triangulation techniques to determine altitudes of objects. An altitude locator is constructed and used to determine the height of a building or a tree. Tangent tables and formulas provide the ratio for the formula to...

Students predict the measurement of objects. In this measurement lesson, students estimate the measurements of objects in a lab. Students measure irregular objects and generate scientific observations.

Students explore what work is, measure work done in moving an object, and tell how energy is related to work in both machines and the human body. In this measuring work lesson plan, students walk up a flight of stairs, measure the height...

In this integers and measurement worksheet, students solve 24 various types of problems as defined. They reduce all fractions to lowest terms. Then, students draw a diagram and show the measurements to the proper power and pi for the...

Students measure and record weights and heights and compare to others in the class as they find out more about their bodies.

Students create a sextant. Using their sextant, students measure the height of tall objects. Students explore how sailors used sextants to identify their location on the ocean. They research how sextants are created.

For this geometry worksheet, students examine the height of 4 trees. They tell which tree is the tallest, make comparisons in 2 questions. They look at a picture of a pen, and a blue strip which they compare to the given units of measure...

Learners conduct an experiment to determine how the change in ramp height affects the distances a ball is able to move a stationary cup. Data is collected from several trials and recorded and analyzed.

Learners determine the exact relationship between the height from which a ball is dropped and the distance that it rebounds.

Eighth graders determine the relationship between the height of bounce of a ping-pong ball and the height from which it was dropped. They are assessed on the ability to record and interpret data, graph data, make predictions, and make...

Fifth graders measure different heights and spans on a classmate's body such as full height, head width, leg length, and arm length. They place the data in a spreadsheet, determine the proportions, and draw a portrait using the proper...

Third graders measure time and length. Through the use of video and technology, they explore key elements of measurement, such as units and conversion between units. They explore alternate units of measurement and apply measurement to...

Fifth graders investigate units used to measure different geometric situations. In this geometry lesson, 5th graders measure length, mass, volume and temperature using units for measurements. They estimate the measurements before...

Students study the metric system and examine other ways to measure.  For this measurement lesson students complete activities that help them to better understand the measuring system. 

Students use formulas to design and create a table.  For this calculations lesson students create basal measuring tapes that will be used to measure woodlot stocking levels. 

In this Mammoth worksheet, students think of things in this world that can compare in height, length, or even weight to a mammoth.

Students investigate basic geometric concepts. In this geometry lesson, students explore solids through measuring and modeling. This assignment models the importance of understanding concrete objects in geometry.      

Students use bathroom scales, rulers and boards to explore how to measure their own center of gravity.

Young scholars explore temperature and use Celcius thermometers to measure and graph the temperature in the classroom daily. They estimate what they think the temperature might be and then find the actual temperature in the room.

Students explore notions of relationships between two variables. They use discussion, games, worksheets, spreadsheets to consider relationships such as: height vs. shoe size, cricket chirping vs. temperature.

In this similarity learning exercise, students use the characteristics of similar figures to determine the length of one side of a polygon, the height of a tree, or the shortest side of a triangle. They also identify similar figures. ...

In this measurement worksheet, 8th graders solve 10 different word problems that include illustrations to match. First, they determine how long ago the railway coaches started on the tracks in the US. Then, students determine the number...
