Fourth graders participate in a teacher-led discussion about temperature--hot and cold. Each group of students is assigned specific materials for their lab experiment. They record temperatures measured in their journals and then plot...

Third, fourth, and fifth graders participate in measurement centers. They visit six different centers: standard and linear measurement, clocks, weight, volume, temperature, and converting measurements. They complete a data collection...

Show your class all the ways they will use math in the real world with this online measurement worksheet. 10 multiple choice questions cover concepts such as converting fluid and solid units of measurement, comparing temperatures, and...

Weight, time, length, cost, and mass are all things we can measure. Learners are introduced to the concepts they'll need to know before embarking on any measurement adventure. They are introduced to each type of measurement and types of...

Young mathematicians are shown a ruler, yardstick, tape measure and scale. They practice measuring length, width, height, and weight. They are then shown a thermometer, and discuss what a thermometer is used for. Everyone is shown how to...

Your young forensic scientists add to and strengthen their measurement and conversion skills with these seven well-scaffold worksheets. Metric conversions, measuring length, area, and volume, reading thermometers, graduated cylinders,...

Students measure temperature and become aware the the temperature above and below the snow is different.  In this winter temperature lesson, students measure temperatures to find variation based on how the snow is packed. Students...

Conversion immersion — it's measuring mania! A set of four activities teaches scholars to convert between customary and metric units. Resource covers unit conversions in length, temperature, weight/mass, and volume.

For this how do you measure up worksheet, students interactively answer 10 multiple choice questions about measurement, then click to check their answers.

In this recognizing metric measurements worksheet, students read groups of three measurements and identify the one that is the smallest. Students solve 15 problems.

Develop a formula based upon numerical computations. The 31st part of a 33-part unit has the class determine the formula to convert a temperature in Celsius to a temperature in Fahrenheit. They do this by making comparisons between the...

Not only do future engineers learn the difference between accuracy and precision, they also get some hands-on experience using different measuring tools. 

What are polygons? Learners find the perimeter of various geometric figures that the teacher has drawn in chalk on the sidewalk. A worksheet to record their measurements is provided. Get your third graders outside and exploring the world...

Students investigate soil temperatures. In this graphing and earth science lesson, students insert temperature probes into different types of soil at varying depths. Students complete a data chart and construct a related graph...

Fifth graders practice measuring items with unique tools.  In this length lesson plan, 5th graders examine several household items and must decide if they want to use a pencil width, piece of paper, or their thumb to measure the...

In this units and tools used to measure worksheet, students observe objects, circle the unit needed to measure and circle the correct tool to use. Students circle eight answers.

In this measurement instructional activity, students determine which of 3 measurement tools would be used to answer 4 mathematical questions. Students circle their multiple choice answers and then draw or write an explanation for each...

Upper graders use a variety of tools to measure liquid and solid ingredients in an ice cream making recipe. Following written and oral directions and accurately timing themselves forms the basis of this lesson.

Pupils compare the weight of the students's favorite soft toys directly and then indirectly using beads.
