For this measurement worksheet, students read a table of products sold in a vending machine and their metric capacities.  Students solve 6 word problems where they convert milliliters to liters and liters to milliliters. ...

This learning exercise would make a nifty quiz on the laws of thermodynamics. Nine multiple choice questions assess high schoolers' understanding of energy transfer, specific heat capacity, phase change, fusion, and vaporization. It is...

Upper graders identify the surface area and attributes of figures that are measurable. They estimate, measure, and record perimeter, area, temperature change, and elapsed time, using a variety of strategies. They also determine the...

See how changes in initial populations and parameters affect a biological community. Individuals use a special software program to simulate a desert community with five species. They adjust initial populations to see how the community...

Second graders investigate the concept of measuring weight, mass, and capacity. In this measurement worksheet, 2nd graders compare items using the words "more than" or "less than." They predict whether an item weighs more or less than a...

Learners measure their body. In this measurement lesson, students use a string to measure their height and the circumference of their head. They record this information on the worksheet provided and answer questions as a group. 

Will human population growth always be exponential, or will we find a limiting factor we can't avoid? Young scientists learn about both exponential and logistic growth models in various animal populations. They use case studies to...

Students work with measurements of length, area, and volume capacity of a liquid. They watch a teacher demonstration of both English and metric units before they estimate and take actual measurements of assigned items a three different...

Students measure lung capacity and explore factors that affect the amount of air the lungs can hold.

Second graders take a field trip to a nearby church or other historical building and examine it from a mathematical perspective. In groups, they calculate the seating capacity, describe the window patterns, differentiate types of...

Scholars learn about kinetics and buffers as they use qualitative and quantitative methods to understand enzyme rates and buffer capacity. The application of Beer's Law and spectrophotometry solidifies pupils' knowledge in the first of...

How do you convert inches to centimeters? Or pints to liters? This handy reference guide has both US to metric, and metric to US conversions in a quick, easy-to-read format. Mass, area, volume, capacity, and length conversions are...

The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation combined logarithmic terms with the application of carbonic acid as a buffer solution. Scholars learn investigate equation and its applications through hands-on experiments. They collect data and...

A valuable resource provides a list of concepts that young chemists should grasp. The topics include energetics, kinetics, equilibria, redox reactions, and the halogen group. Employ this as a guide for your own curriculum planning, or a...

Third graders use nonstandard concrete methods to estimate and record measurements of their body.

Adorn your classroom or science lab with posters about units of measurement. Each page has pictures and symbols to show even struggling learners how to define volume, weight, and capacity.

Students examine containers and their capacity. They fill a one-cup measuring cup with water and pour cups of water into other containers. Through observation, students discover how many cups make a pint, and how many teaspoons make a...

Young mathematicians may solve for cubic units but do they know what that is? This video does a great job of visually explaining not only how to find cubic volume, but what it means in relatable terms. 

Does it feel a little humid in here? Learners assume the role of water vapor in the atmosphere as they explore the differences between warm and cold air. They roll dice to determine their level of energy, which determines if they...

Students determine how to convert measurement. In this English Measurement instructional activity, students discover interesting facts about the history of measurement. Students study formulas and practice using them.

In this measuring lung volume and capacity worksheet, students perform several experiments testing for exhaled carbon dioxide, measuring lung volume, and measuring lung capacity.

In this units of measurement worksheet, 8th graders solve 10 different problems that include various units of measure. They add each of the units of measure listed in each problem. Then, students determine the length, mass, and capacity...

First graders use rulers to measure in both standard notation and centimeters. In this measuring lesson, 1st graders discuss the importance of a measuring standard. Students measure in inches and centimeters. Students compare inches to...

In this lung capacity worksheet, students use straws, funneling, liquids, tubing, and more to test their lung capacity. Students follow 14 sets of directions and analyze their data.
