Learners conduct an experiment to determine how the change in ramp height affects the distances a ball is able to move a stationary cup. Data is collected from several trials and recorded and analyzed.

In this geometry worksheet, students examine the height of 4 trees. They tell which tree is the tallest, make comparisons in 2 questions. They look at a picture of a pen, and a blue strip which they compare to the given units of measure...

Learners determine the exact relationship between the height from which a ball is dropped and the distance that it rebounds.

Eighth graders determine the relationship between the height of bounce of a ping-pong ball and the height from which it was dropped. They are assessed on the ability to record and interpret data, graph data, make predictions, and make...

Fifth graders measure different heights and spans on a classmate's body such as full height, head width, leg length, and arm length. They place the data in a spreadsheet, determine the proportions, and draw a portrait using the proper...

Third graders measure time and length. Through the use of video and technology, they explore key elements of measurement, such as units and conversion between units. They explore alternate units of measurement and apply measurement to...

Fifth graders investigate units used to measure different geometric situations. In this geometry lesson, 5th graders measure length, mass, volume and temperature using units for measurements. They estimate the measurements before...

Students study the metric system and examine other ways to measure.  For this measurement lesson students complete activities that help them to better understand the measuring system. 

Students use formulas to design and create a table.  For this calculations lesson students create basal measuring tapes that will be used to measure woodlot stocking levels. 

In this Mammoth worksheet, students think of things in this world that can compare in height, length, or even weight to a mammoth.

Students investigate basic geometric concepts. In this geometry lesson, students explore solids through measuring and modeling. This assignment models the importance of understanding concrete objects in geometry.      

For this comparing heights of famous landmarks worksheet, 2nd graders use the data given to solve six problems about which landmark is taller.

Students use bathroom scales, rulers and boards to explore how to measure their own center of gravity.

Young scholars explore temperature and use Celcius thermometers to measure and graph the temperature in the classroom daily. They estimate what they think the temperature might be and then find the actual temperature in the room.

Students explore notions of relationships between two variables. They use discussion, games, worksheets, spreadsheets to consider relationships such as: height vs. shoe size, cricket chirping vs. temperature.

In this similarity learning exercise, students use the characteristics of similar figures to determine the length of one side of a polygon, the height of a tree, or the shortest side of a triangle. They also identify similar figures. ...

In this measurement worksheet, 8th graders solve 10 different word problems that include illustrations to match. First, they determine how long ago the railway coaches started on the tracks in the US. Then, students determine the number...

Students explore vertical and horizontal measurement of large objects. In pairs, they measure the trunk, crown, and height of a tree, create a graph of their results, and compare their results with their classmates.

Students explore geometry by conducing a student measurement activity. For this height lesson, students identify their own height by utilizing a tape measure and marking their height on a wall. Students identify their height in...

Fourth graders explore basic measurements by analyzing their own bodies. In this human anatomy lesson plan, 4th graders identify the units used to measure a human body such as centimeters, inches, ounces and pounds. Students complete a...

Third graders practice measuring items by examining classroom objects.  For this geometry lesson, 3rd graders utilize measuring tools to find the weight, time, length or temperature of specific classroom items.  Students...

Students model the effects of wind speed and water depth on the height of waves during a hurricane. For this meteorology lesson, students use a flexible straw and a 9X 13 baking dish to measure the differences in wave...

Students calculate the length of the classroom using non-standard units of measurement and estimation. Using a cracker box, they discuss measuring various objects in the room as a class, and independently estimate and measure the length...

Students study trees in their natural habitat. In this tree lesson, students complete a number of outdoor activities to estimate the height of a tree, examine how bark can be a distinguishing tree characteristic, and how to make a bark...
