This seventh grade life science quiz has a professional appearance and well-written multiple-choice questions. However, it seems to cover too broad a variety of biology topics for only 15 questions to fully assess. There is one question...

Sixth graders measure distances on a map using string and a ruler. They complete mathematical word problems about measurement.

Students explore the concept of measurement, modelling the increments on a standard ruler using cubes and grid paper. They identify the length of a line to a designated standard unit and measure specified body parts.

In this mathematics worksheet, students imagine that a giant needed a ruler to measure things in his world. they draw a line under the bottom edge of the ruler and under each mark, write the size of the fractional part.

Young scholars determine the temperature of the water in a cup, measure the length of a piece of cardboard, and measure out an appropriate volume of water. This task assesses student's abilities to perform measurement and reporting skills.

Students study how to estimate the diameter of a tree, estimate the height of the tree using shadows, estimate the height of the tree using a ruler, and use tools for measuring trees.

In this measurement instructional activity, students circle a picture of the tool the was used to prove a given statement, 4 statement in all.

Second graders estimate and measure various classroom objects using an apple as their tool for measuring, and record their measurement results on a data worksheet.

Fourth graders are introduced to how to take measurements in the metric system. After defining new vocabulary, they read a story by Mark Twain about jumping frogs. In groups, they simulate a frog jumping contest in which they made...

In this observation tools worksheet, students will compare how a lens, a ruler, and a balance can help them learn about the properties of objects. This worksheet is a graphic organizer.

By now your class most likely has experience using a ruler, but they may not have learned to measure length to the quarter inch. This handout begins by explaining how, and then gives learners an opportunity to estimate these more...

In this metric measurement of length activity, students answer six questions about estimating, definition and use of a ruler.

For this measurement worksheet, students use a ruler to measure two paths that are not straight. Students answer 3 questions about their results.

Students differentiate between a meteor and meteorite. They participate in an experiment to discover how the size and weight of an object determines the size of the impact crater. They utilize their math skills by measuring with a ruler...

Students calculate the size of a mummy case and its contents using ancient Egyptian measurements.

Student measure the length of the sides of rectangles and squares using inches, feet and yards. They determine perimeters of rectangles and squares. They then determine areas of rectangles and squares. Student compare measurement of...

In this Jupiter and Io worksheet, students use a diagram of the planet and its moon to find the dimension of the image, the width of the largest feature in the atmosphere of Jupiter, the width of the smallest feature in the atmosphere of...

In this moon craters worksheet, students use a high resolution image of the lunar surface and calculate the image scale in meters per millimeter. They use the image scale to find the largest crater in the image, the smallest crater, the...

In this Washington D.C. from space learning exercise, students use a picture generated by the International Space Station and they find the scale of the image. They determine the actual size of features in the image, they find the...

Second graders distinguish between and use nonstandard and standard units of measurement, use appropriate tools and techniques to measure length and width, and record and interpret data using graphs.

In this water on Mars worksheet, learners use a diagram to answer four questions about the structures in the image. They find the dimensions of the image, the width of the streams half-way down their flow channels, the smallest feature...

Fifth graders identify trees along a nature trail. Using a dichotomous key, 5th graders answer questions to aid in their identification of trees along a specified nature trail. Observations are recorded in their science journals. Sample...

Students collect data, use a computer spreadsheet program to create various graphs, and compare the graphs. They state the findings of each graph in writing and decide which graph type best represents the data.

Trying to understand the vastness of outer space can be quite a challenge for young scientists. Help put things in perspective with this cross-curricular activity as students work in pairs creating scaled models of...
