Students complete measurement activities to define a specific length in meters. For this measurement lesson, students give a description of a path that would be 800 meters long, measure the actual path, and describe its beginning...
Curated OER
Slosh, Dribble, and Plop
Students recognize the need for a standard unit of volume. They estimate and measure to the nearest liter. Also they relate the liter to the familiar everyday containers.
Curated OER
Production Work Sample
Eleventh graders practice reading a basic blueprint for a closet. Using the blueprint, they identify the parts, measure and cut the wood and square a wall. They review safety procedures and use hand tools to attach a track to a cement...
Curated OER
Pumpkin Predictions
In this mathematical worksheet, students estimate and predict the height, stem length, diameter, circumference and weight of five pumpkins against their actual measurements.
Curated OER
Water: Liquid or Solid?
First graders investigate how water can be both a liquid and a solid. They weigh popsicles and observe them as they write in their science journals. They measure the liquid as the popsicle melts and refreeze them to change them back...

Designing Kites
Sixth graders sketch their own kites by creating a scale drawing of an original design. In this designing kites lesson, 6th graders draw a rough sketch, then accurately draw their design on large paper with a ruler, measuring...
Curated OER
Make Me Metric
Sixth graders explore standard and nonstandard measurement. In this measurement instructional activity, 6th graders estimate the lengths of different objects and write about their observations during measuring. Students work in...
Curated OER
Pumpkin Math
Young scholars discover how to measure the circumference of objects. In this measurement lesson, students use a pumpkin and a tape measure to estimate and find the circumference of the pumpkin.
Curated OER
Diagonal Lengths
Middle schoolers collect, organize, and analyze data while studying the Pythagorean Theorem, measure length and width of several rectangular objects, and compare the measured results to the calculated results.
Curated OER
Measuring Water Temperature
Students measure the temperature of three water sources. They collect data points every second for twenty five seconds for each sample using Lego Robolab temperature sensors, complete a worksheet, and analyze the data.
Curated OER
Area Applet
Elementary math classes calculate the area of a shape and explain the correlation between the size of the perimeter and the areas that can be contained within that perimeter. They also explain the effect the shape of the perimeter has on...
