A slideshow, a karaoke song to sing along to, and a short multiple-choice quiz on the topic of measurement and the tools that can be used to measure things, depending on the purpose, e.g., temperature, length, mass, angle, time, etc.

A huge collection of teacher resources to aide in the teaching of all types of metric measurement: length, distance, mass, weight, capacity, and volume. Activities include measuring, estimating, converting, investigating, and finding...

This learning module discusses the definition of matter and what mass and volume measure. Module includes pictures, videos, and review questions.

In this activity, learners will measure a variety of different materials from the classroom to determine how much matter is found in these materials then determine the mass of these materials using the same volume for each. The data will...

This site contains an extensive list of various units of measurement known internationally and across several disciplines. Unit symbols are also included.

This resource explains the structure of the metric system of measurement; the basic units of measurement for length, volume, and mass; and provides charts for each type of measurement. A chart of customary US units is also given.

Students learn how to measure the volume and mass of an object and use that to compute density. They will then use that density to talk about experimental errors and accuracy of measurements.

Students will define density and use the density formula to determine the density, volume, and mass of various items using the correct units for each measurement.

Practice US customary length, volume, and mass problems that require expressing measurements given in a larger unit in terms of a smaller unit. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly,...

Students will use two different methods to determine the densities of a variety of materials and objects. The first method involves direct measurement of the volumes of objects that have simple geometric shapes, while the second uses the...

Discover atoms and molecules which make up matter, motion of atoms and how to measure the mass, volume and density of matter.

This task provides an opportunity to compare the relative volumes of boxes in order to calculate the mass of clay required to fill them. Aligns with 5.MD.C.

Practice your density, mass, and volume calculations with these interactive review problems.
