Stack them together to get a measurement. The short activity has pupils work in pairs to measure the lengths of two blocks and then determine the length of the two blocks together. The groups then determine an equation that represents...

As one changes, so does the other. Scholars use an interactive to see how changes in the measure of one angle of a complementary or supplementary pair of angles affect the measure of the other angle. They answer a set of challenge...

Don't keep the resource at an arm's length. A hands-on activity has scholars measure the heights, arm spans, hair lengths, and foot lengths of their classmates. They create scatter plots to determine if there is a correlation between...

The resource will be 100 percent beneficial. The third of seven installments in 6th Grade Math starts with lessons on percent and percent problems. Pupils also learn how to divide fractions and apply ratio reasoning to convert units,...

An informative presentation shows pupils how to name and measure angles. Scholars revisit the different types of angles and their definitions and use their knowledge of what an angle bisector is to solve algebraic problems. At the end,...

Through a series of worksheets, mathematicians practice with various concepts of measurement. Conveniently, the 6 pages are easily broken up for individual assignments, and seem to progress in difficulty. Math concepts include drawing...

Young mathematicians practice measuring and graphing skills while working in groups to measure objects found in the classroom. Using their measurements, they create one bar graph displaying the lengths and another displaying the widths.

Combines mathematical measurement with gardening skills. Third graders hunt for worms in the garden and try to find the longest one. They also measure and weigh vegetables that they harvest from the garden, measure rainfall amounts,...

Agriculture surrounds us every day; incorporate measuring tools into a study of Oklahoma's agricultural industry! Small groups read an informational text (included) before visiting stations where they investigate prices of various...

Students explore pi. In this circle measurement lesson, students define and identify radius, diameter, circumference, and perimeter. Students work in groups to measure several plastic lids and record their findings. Students compare the...

In a math or life science class, "mini-me" models are created with cardstock to reflect a 1:10 scale of students' bodies. Learners measure each others' heights with meter sticks, and then reduce the size by 10. After this exercise, they...

Youngsters test magnetic strength by measuring the mass of paper clips that they "hook" with a magnet. Your first and second graders should love the hands-on activities associated with this plan. The reproducible materials are quite good...

Fifth graders complete nine problems in which they work with converting customary units of length such as feet to yards, and yards to miles. They compare measurements using inequality signs in six examples, and answer two test prep...

If Shaquille O'Neal wears a size-20 shoe, how big are his hands? Learners will use the average ratios of foot length to hand span to calculate the hand span of Shaq, but first, they have to collect the data! They will...

In this liquid measurements worksheet , students explore measurements of cups, pints, and quarts. Students complete four problems where they determine which quantities are more.

In this units of measure worksheet, students convert millimeters to centimeters. Students complete 10 problems where they convert millimeters to centimeters.

In this recognizing metric measurements worksheet, students read groups of three measurements and identify the one that is the smallest. Students solve 15 problems.

Young mathematicians put one foot in front of the other as they learn how to measure length in an elementary math lesson. Using paper cutouts of their own feet, children measure classroom objects as they discover the importance of...

A set of ten skill-based problems and two word problems make up a metric worksheet in which measuring length and converting units of measurement is the focus.

Students explore mathematics by cooking recipes in class. In this ingredient measuring lesson, students view several recipes in class they wish to cook and practice translating the recipe into a large enough creation that can feed the...

Learners explore the necessity for standards of measurement and measure length, volume, mass and angles. In this measurement lesson plan, students use their hand and foot to measure objects in the room. They compare their measurements to...

Students examine different types of non-standard measurement. In this measuring lesson, students utilize their fingers, palms and feet as measuring tools. Students discuss the difference between measuring using parts of their body and...

Students investigate non-standard linear measurement.  For this cross curriculum measurement lesson, students listen to the book Measuring Penny by Loreen Leedy, and identify pages in which non-standard measurement is used. ...

Fifth graders practice measuring items with unique tools.  In this length lesson plan, 5th graders examine several household items and must decide if they want to use a pencil width, piece of paper, or their thumb to measure the...
