In this measuring lengths using metric rulers worksheet, students measure in centimeters and convert the measurement to meters. Students solve 5 problems.

Explore the concept of measuring and recording circumference. In this physical science and measurement lesson, young learners blow up balloons, measure the circumference, and record the data on an interactive graphing website.

Explore metric measurement, recording data, and creating an electronic spreadsheet displaying results with your math class. Scholars will measure the length of their smiles, record the measurements, and represent the results on an...

Explore the solution to a word problem involving area and perimeter. Learners read and discuss how to approach the problem. In small groups, they determine the maximum area of a rectangle with a given perimeter using a piece of string....

Explore measuring various objects using square centimeters. Learners create various shapes using five centimeter cubes, calculate the area in square centimeters of different classroom objects, and discover who has the largest mouth,...

Start the exploration of trigonometry off right! Pupils build on their understanding of similarity in this lesson that introduces the three trigonometric ratios. They first learn to identify opposite and adjacent...

Even though there is a wide variety of different triangles in the world, knowing a single equation allows us to find the area of each and every one of them. Follow along with this step-by-step presentation as Zoe clearly models how to...

Students measure different parts of the human body. In this measurement lesson, students work in pairs to take measurements of human measurements which include: arm span, height, foot length, and wrist to longest finger. They also...

Sixth graders explore standard and nonstandard measurement. In this measurement lesson, 6th graders estimate the lengths of different objects and write about their observations during measuring. Students work in groups to...

Using patty paper, classes determine that only one triangle is possible when given two specific angle measures and a side length. As the 10th instructional activity in the series of 29, young math scholars add these criteria to those...

Are you searching for a purpose for geometric constructions? Use an engaging approach to explore dilations. Scholars create dilations using a construction method of their choice. As they build their constructed dilation, they...

Learners build confidence working with geometric tools and develop their construction techniques in the sixth lesson plan of the 29-part series. Given a geometric description, they use a compass, protractor, or ruler to create it....

Congruent figures: two figures that want to be just like each other. Individuals learn to distinguish between figures that are congruent and those that are not. Measuring the lengths of line segments and angles helps in this endeavor.

Your learners will construct the perpendicular bisector of a chord. They use Cabri Jr. to construct a circle and a perpendicular bisector of a chord. They then measure lengths of the chords and perpendicular bisectors. Learners use...

In this math patterns activity, students review the beginning numbers in Fibonacci's numbers, find the pattern, follow directions and problem solve to find the Golden Number and complete a chart, measure lengths of body parts and find...

Students prove conjectures about geometric figures on the plane or in space using coordinate geometry. They develop fluency in operations with real numbers, vectors and matrices using mental computation or paper-and-pencil calculations...

Students find the areas of geometric shapes. In this geometry lesson students find and measure the sides, perimeters, and areas of quadrilaterals, triangles, and circles. Students relate the measures to the others by using formulas.

In this triangles instructional activity, students measure and calculate the measurements of eight triangles, their sums and classify the triangles as acute, obtuse or right.

Third graders examine the non-standard method of measurement and compare it to the metric system of measurement. In this introductory module lesson, 3rd graders discover the scientific observation. Students also develop communication...

In this test for parallelograms instructional activity, students solve 15 short answer problems. Students determine if a given sketch is a parallelogram given angle measures and/or side lengths. Students use knowledge of parallelograms...

In this parallelogram worksheet, students examine the lengths of the sides of a quadrilateral.  They identify parallelograms.  This one-page worksheet contains 13 multiple-choice problems.  This online worksheet provides...

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...
