Turn young mathematicians into landscape architects with this four-lesson series on area and perimeter. Beginning with a basic introduction to calculating perimeter and area using non-standard units of measurement, this...

Scholars learn about the metric system and produce a presentation on how to convert within the metric system. They then develop a brochure in support of legislation requiring the use of the metric system.

Students complete 6 units to learn about Ancient Greece and the Olympic games through physical education activities as well as math activities. In this Ancient Greece lesson, students complete multiple activities in 6 lessons including...

Trace the links between a variety of math concepts in this far-reaching unit. Ideas that seem very different on the outset (like the distance formula and rigid transformations) come together in very natural and logical ways. This...

Your learners combine their knowledge of real and imaginary numbers and matrices in an activity containing thirty lessons, two assessments (mid-module and end module), and their corresponding rubrics. Centered on complex numbers and...

Get things moving with this elementary science unit on simple machines. Through a series of nine lessons including teacher demonstrations, hands-on activities, and science experiments, young scientists learn about forces, motion,...

Take young geologists on an exploration of the rock cycle with this six-lesson earth science unit on rocks and minerals. Through a series of discussions, demonstrations, and hands-on investigations your class will learn...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] For this learning module, students are asked to divide a total length, height, or perimeter into equal parts. Includes video demonstrating a sample problem [0:37]...

Take a tour of the Eiffel Tower with Marie-Clare and measure its area. Read and interpret time and look at cross-sections of 3D figures.

Learn more about the metric system by taking a look at the common metric units along with some solved examples and a few practice questions to test your understanding.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Choose appropriate metric measurement tools when finding various lengths.

Students convert between metric and customary units of length in a series of self-check exercises and timed learning games.

Students will complete interactive activities to explore measurement of length, volume, capacity, time, and averages.

On this interactive site students learn to estimate lengths and distances using kilometers, explain the difference between perimeter and area, and measure the volume of a 3D object by counting the cubic centimeters.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Convert among metric units of measure using powers of 10.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this learning module, students compare lengths in different metric units to identify the shortest. Includes video demonstrating a sample problem. [1:57] A set of...

In this lesson, students units use different units to measure the same object.
