Students' temperature is measured using an instrument called a thermometer.

Eighth graders define orbit, rotation and revolution. They demonstrate the orbit, rotation and revolution of the Earth. Students identify the types of measurements and the instruments that used for orbit, rotation and revolution. They...

First graders use literature and hands-on activities with maps and globes to explain distance and tools used to measure distance. They select tools to measure various objects in the classroom, then apply those concepts to their map...

Second graders measure and grid their ideas for the new classroom floor plan. They create their own ideas for the classroom arrangement on grid paper. When they finish, they share their draft plan with their peers and with the teacher...

Students demonstrate their ability to properly make observations using a compound microscope. They prepare an onion skin slide and focus on it in both low and high power. Then they measure the diameter of one of the cells.

Eleventh graders compare the amount of sugar sand present in tree sap. In this environmental science instructional activity, 11th graders measure different tree circumference. They prepare a report and share findings in class.

In this parts of similar triangles worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 15 different statements related to naming the parts found in similar triangles. First, they identify each definition stated that describes an everyday usage of...

Students explore where a melody and melody fragments enter different voice parts, and adjusts dynamically to enable the listener to perceive these events. Each student uses a rubric to make critical evaluations of the performances.

Students analyze the functions of musical scores as they relate to percussion instruments. They follow an audio and video presentation as they count and follow beat patterns.
