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

Fifth graders study the sizes of pumpkins. They measure and record the diameters of pumpkins. They create five subtraction problems and solve them. They weigh their pumpkins, record the data and select two pumpkins to make a graph of...

Students explore estimation. They estimate distance, weight, temperature and elapsed time. Students record their estimates and justify their estimations wtih a written response. After estimating, students take the actual measurements of...

Students complete a Cirlce Map about time. They recall times during the grouchy ladybugs travels, and add dots on ladybugs using turn-around facts. Pupils correctly sequence the events of The Grouchy Ladybug. Students compose new...

Students create an experiment. In this friction lesson plan, students review the concept of friction and complete a bottle roll activity. Students work in groups to create their own friction experiment.

Third graders investigate physics by conducting an experiment.  For this gravity lesson, 3rd graders create a ramp using books and paper which they roll a marble down.  Students utilize the scientific method to predict and...

Pupils explore weight. In this math instructional activity, students predict which item weighs more and discuss how they arrived at their decision. Pupils weigh several items to determine which weighs more.

Third graders study partial-products algorithms. In this math lesson, 3rd graders use an algorithm to find the product of factors. Students discuss the relationships between multiplication and division.

In this measurement worksheet, students use the ladder method to convert basic units. Then they compare each using greater than, less than, or equal to. Students also write the correct abbreviation for each metric unit.

In this weight and volume mathematical worksheet, learners calculate the volume and weight in sixteen metric units in litres and millilitres.

High schoolers use a shortcut method to change one metric unit to another (Ex: kilometers to centimeters), by using a diagram which uses words students can relate and remember.

In this metric weight worksheet, students solve 10 multiple choice questions regarding metric units of weigh or mass.  Students must be able to convert metric units of mass or weight.  The worksheet is interactive and answers...

In this metric worksheet, students examine conversion factors for length, mass, volume and area. Definitions of prefixes and metric abbreviations are identified.

Fourth graders practice estimating temperatures. They practice in Celsius and Fahrenheit.

Fourth graders measure cups, quarts, and liters.

In this metric measurements activity, students use the table for the 'River Dolphins' and their metric masses for the calves and adults. Students use the table to solve the six problems.

Pupils define density and observe that things that are less dense than water will float. Students find the density of copper, iron and aluminum

Fifth graders use the Celsius and Fahrenheit thermometers to compare temperature readings. They use the Internet to find the temperatures of selected cities. After data is collected for five days, 5th graders graph the temperatures.

Fourth graders construct their own aquifer. They discover how water travels underwater and identifies sources of underground pollution. They record their observations and discuss the results.

Students determine the density of metal shot by a graphical method using significant digits in making measurements and calculations. Students graph a seris of laboratory measurements and determine density from a mass verses volume graph.

In this word search worksheet, the student finds 12 measurement words in the square and circle the words either across or down.

Students practice converting units of measurement using the ladder method.  In this metric conversion lesson students practice converting metric measurements and filling out the worksheet. 

In this math worksheet, learners look for the words in the puzzle that are related to the theme of the word search. The vocabulary and spelling are emphasized.
