Fifth graders discover in hands-on activities the relationships between the measures. They work in groups to create conversion tables using familiar measuring tools. Students solve problems requiring conversions.
Curated OER
Math is Everywhere: Part 2
Second graders identify shapes and measurements in everyday life. In this measurement lesson, 2nd graders locate rectangles in their classroom and use standard and nonstandard forms to measure them. Students view a video clip...
Curated OER
What's the Matter with that Cup?
Fourth graders measure volume, circumference, and height of fast food cups, find which one has the greatest volume, and compare/contrast those measurements to discover any correlations between them.
Curated OER
Traveling at the Speed of Sound
Students discuss sound and how it's measured, and through experimentation and implementation of the scientific method, they determine the speed of sound.
Curated OER
Introduction to Fractions Using Cuisenaire Rods
Fifth graders use Cuisenaire rods in order to discover how to represent fractions with real objects. For this lesson on fractions, 5th graders first examine and learn the colors, lengths, and numerical values of each rod; then, students...
Curated OER
Bell Curve
Students explain normal distribution of a measurable characteristic within a group of objects. They create two graphs (one for each type of Hershey's Kiss) with increments of measurement on the X-axes and number of measurements on the...
