Through the examination of the relationship between the lengths of the sides of a triangles young scholars will learn the classification of triangles (acute, right, or obtuse).

Students, in groups, measure a variety of physical components to several activities. They use both standard and non-standard forms of measurement and then develop conclusions about the use of units in measurement.

In this metric conversion worksheet, students solve 12 problems in which larger units are converted to smaller units. Included are conversions of weight, distance and capacity. There are no hints or examples.

Students convert English to metric units. In this math lesson, students give examples of measurements they encounter in their daily lives. The share their answers in class.

Students investigate the length of various objects. In this measurement lesson, students convert one metric unit to another. They explain the importance of a uniform system of measurement.

In this measurement conversions worksheet, students solve the problems by converting the measurements in each problem to the given systems.

Learners investigate woodworking and converting lengths to cubic measurements.  In this math conversions instructional activity, students examine the length of a piece of board, and its total area by using the formula for finding...

Learners explore the Pythagoras theorem. In this geometry lesson plan, students make right triangles and identify the parts of the triangle. Learners complete measurements of the sides of the triangle.
