Students review different units of measurement that would be used to measure height. They compare their height to that of Abraham Lincoln by working with a partner to make a life size tracing of each other and measuring their height.

In this volume learning exercise, 8th graders solve and complete 6 different short answer questions and problems that relate to volume. First, they determine the number of cubes found altogether that has a given length, width and height....

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...

For this science project worksheet, learners create a container that catches a raw egg and prevents it from breaking. They measure that the container is under 19.5 inches in width and length. Students also calculate their scores from the...

In this scale drawings instructional activity, 5th graders learn to solve measurement problems using scale drawings and models for the six word problems.

In this mathematical worksheet, students estimate and predict the height, stem length, diameter, circumference and weight of five pumpkins against their actual measurements.

In this describing people learning exercise, students write words under people to describe their height, age, shape, and more. Students complete 17 problems.

Learners use both standard and metric measurement. They compare and contrast standard to non-standard units of measurement.

Third graders measure their feet and their parents' feet, record data on computer-generated graphs, and calculate and record mean, median, and mode.

The pupils are able to use a formula to calculate the volume of cuboids by measuring the length of each of the three dimensions. They also investigate the relationship between milliliters and cubic centimeters.

Pupils study proportions. In this mathematics instructional activity, students measure their body length, head length, and ratio of their body, write their findings on a group chart, and discuss how a person's head size or arm span are...

Students, in groups, measure and record each other's height. They identify measurement conversion methods and use online resources to convert measured heights to multiple systems.

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...

Eighth graders measure height and shadow length of other students on a sunny day and develop a ratio. They apply the ratio to other students and objects using shadows to determine height.

Rather than a worksheet, this teacher resource is a one-page, scripted answer sheet for a guided lesson on length word problems. First graders are asked to compare the length of a flower and a jar of jam with a number of unit boxes....

Learners are given a volume of a rectangular tank and are asked to find the water height. Because the total volume of the tank is given in liters, your geometers will need to use a unit ratio to convert to centimeters cubed. The exercise...

Each of these five rectangles has been split into even sections and scholars must figure the area based on the segmented shapes. There are five possible answers for them to match, however none have units attached. Keep in mind this is...

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 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.
