On this interactive site students learn to estimate lengths and distances using kilometers, explain the difference between perimeter and area, and measure the volume of a 3D object by counting the cubic centimeters.

Students learn to explore relationships between units of measure and objects to be measured. They develop an understanding of length, area, and volume.

A huge collection of teacher resources to aide in the teaching of all types of metric measurement: length, distance, mass, weight, capacity, and volume. Activities include measuring, estimating, converting, investigating, and finding...

Activities for learning the meaning of capacity and volume.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Convert among customary units of measurement by using factors and multiples.

In this activity, students find the area and the perimeter for several geometric shapes. They also determine the surface area and volume of spheres.

In this activity students will measure their heart rates after a variety of physical activities and compare the results with their resting heart rates, and with the heart rates of other students in their groups.

Students will complete interactive activities to explore measurement of length, volume, capacity, time, and averages.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Students practice visually comparing capacity using metric units.

Twenty-five problems cover the topics of volume of solids and surface area. They are given with each step to the solution cleverly revealed one at a time. You can work each step of the problem then click the "View Solution" button to...

The Center for Mathematics and Science Education at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill provides an interesting and easy-to-use dictionary of the history and meaning of many measurement terms. Metric, International, and...

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...

Students will learn and reinforce skills for measuring perimeter and area of 2D shapes and measuring surface area and volume of 3D shapes.

Solve word problems involving volume. Estimate the volume of items. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

Practice estimating the volume of real life objects using milliliters and liters. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

Practice converting a metric measure of volume to a smaller unit. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

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...

Students investigate the relationship between density of an object, its mass and its volume. They use mass and volume measurements to determine the density of pennies. They compare the density of pre-1983 and post-1984 pennies.

Students rotate from station to station completing activities involving measurement weight, length, and volume using metric measurement.

Using an engaging approach, this lesson requires students to record the volume of cylinders as a function of the radius. Students will construct and measure the volume of several cylinders and then begin comparing these shapes.

In this interactive lesson, learn what the "physical properties" of matter are and how can they be measured and observed.

In this first part of a two-part lab activity, students use triple balance beams and graduated cylinders to take measurements and calculate the densities of several common, irregularly shaped objects with the purpose to resolve confusion...

Students learn how to measure volume using US Standard Units. A definitions, examples, and practice problems are included.

Find volume of 3-dimensional figures by counting unit cubes. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.
