A brief overview of the definition of volume, and a description on how to measure the volumes of liquids.

In this activity, students' will use temperature sensors to measure temperatures of water samples before and after mixing. They compare the mixing temperatures to a linear prediction.

In this video from Cyberchase, Bianca is babysitting infant twins. As she tries to give each twin the same amount of liquid baby formula, she discovers that all the baby bottles are different shapes. Learn how she finds two that hold the...

Convert metric measurements to U.S. Measurements and the reverse, too. Easy to follow tables have sections for area, length, mass,temperature and volume.

Here are three activities--concentration, matching, and flashcards--to help learn or review the units of customary measurement.

In this activity, students' will use a Voltage Sensor to measure the voltage produced by an electrolyte. They will understand that acids and bases are electrolytes and compare voltages of acids to the voltages of bases. Students' will...

Students use the EasyTemp Probe to measure the temperature of hot and cold water before and after mixing. Students compare the mixing temperatures to a linear prediction. EasyData is needed for this activity.

In this activity, you will make a liquid thermometer to track how temperatures vary with location, indoors or outdoors.

Here's a project that shows you how to use a laser pointer and some knowledge of physics to figure out the concentration of sugar dissolved in a liquid.

When an earthquake occurs, seismic shock waves travel out through the earth from the source of the event. The shock waves travel through the earth (body waves), or along the Earth's surface (surface waves), and can be recorded at remote...

Students learn how volume, viscosity and slope are factors that affect the surface area that lava covers. Using clear transparency grids and liquid soap, students conduct experiments, make measurements and collect data. They also...

Students calculate the viscosity of various household fluids by measuring the amount of time it takes marble or steel balls to fall given distances through the liquids. They experience what viscosity means, and also practice using...

Measure and compare the heat capacity of an unknown liquid with an unknown density.

In this exercise, students practice arithmetic word problems with mass. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to get hints, watch a tutorial video, and try questions repeatedly. CCSS.Math.Content.3.MD.A.2 Measure...

This interactive game has students apply skills in estimation, measurement, and basic addition using pearls. Students are asked to estimate the number of pearls in a treasure chest by making predictions and using number sense. The skills...

In this exercise, students practice estimating mass. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to get step-by-step hints and try questions repeatedly. CCSS.Math.Content.3.MD.A.2 Measure and estimate liquid volumes and...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] This learning module offers four videos and a set of practice questions on how to find the capacity of liquid by filling containers with liquids (English Units).

Half-length practice test for the third grade OAT (Ohio Achievement Test). The test includes 17 multiple-choice and 4 open-response question dealing with topics such as geometry (triangle identification, surface area), number sense...

Students act as chemical engineers and use LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT robotics to record temperatures and learn about the three states of matter. Properties of matter can be measured in various ways, including volume, mass, density and...

Students learn how to measure things using US Standard Units. Liquids, mass, length, and temperature are explored. Practice problems are included.

Based on experimental observations, students describe, on the molecular level, why the liquid in a thermometer goes up when it is heated and down when it is cooled.

In this week's Afterschool Adventure, Appetite for Fractions, children will explore fractions as they help create, divvy up, and serve a variety of real and virtual snacks.

This hands-on, inquiry based lesson is an extension of the AMSTI Science Module, Solids and Liquids. Young scholars use nonstandard units to measure beans in a soup mix. Students predict how many beans will be in a scoop. Young scholars...

To give students a feeling for both what viscosity values are and how they are measured in the lab, they measure fluid viscosity by dropping ball bearings into graduated cylinders of fluids.
