This metric system tutorial is compared to the U.S. standard system so that students can comprehend the measurement of length, volume, mass and the like.

Convert between metric measures of distance, volume, and mass. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

This is the definitive source for information on SI base units, derived units, squares, cubes, luminosity, field strength and flux density.

In this first part of a two-part lab activity, students use triple balance beams and graduated cylinders to take measurements and calculate the densities of several common, irregularly shaped objects with the purpose to resolve confusion...

Read the die to find out what exercise to do and how many repetitions are needed, keep a running tally of rolls to see who gets the highest score.

In this interactive lesson, learn what the "physical properties" of matter are and how can they be measured and observed.

About how many cells are in the human body? The purpose of this task is for learners to apply the concepts of mass, volume, and density in a real-world context. Aligns with G-MG.A.2.

This lesson will introduce students to measuring weight, mass, volume, and capacity using metric and cutomary units. This lesson plan was created by exemplary Alabama Math Teachers through the AMSTI project.

Convert metric measurements to U.S. Measurements and the reverse, too. Easy to follow tables have sections for area, length, mass,temperature and volume.

Students investigate the relationship between density of an object, its mass and its volume. They use mass and volume measurements to determine the density of pennies. They compare the density of pre-1983 and post-1984 pennies.

Conversion calculators galore! Convert just about anything from one measureable unit into another measureable unit here with over two dozen calculators. Each of the links is specific to a measureable quantity. Some examples include...

Use this converter to find equivalent units for a measure. You can convert measures for area, length, weight, temperature, and volume.

In this engaging instructional activity, students use a variety of measurement strategies in creating their own Sand Babies. Students explore standard and non-standard measurements, area, data collection and analysis, and graphing....

Very complete chart of conversion factors for English to SI (metric) unit measurements and SI (metric) to English unit measurements. Includes length, area, volume, mass, temperature, illumination, and force & mass (stress).

Students act as chemical engineers and use LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT robotics to record temperatures and learn about the three states of matter. Properties of matter can be measured in various ways, including volume, mass, density and...

It's difficult at times for younger young scholars to realize that air has mass. Matter is something that has volume (takes up space) and has mass (*can be weighed). Air does take up space, even if we can't see it, and air has weight,...

Disappearing Wetlands: Explore the relationship between mass, density, and salinity by measuring the mass and volume of four saltwater solutions of increasing strength.
