For this math worksheet, students read the weight conversion chart in order to solve problems as they are given for measurement.

Create models of the infrared, visible, and ultraviolet portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Working in small groups, your class can investigate metric conversions calculations. They will find the length of the waves in nanometers,...

In a math or life science class, "mini-me" models are created with cardstock to reflect a 1:10 scale of students' bodies. Learners measure each others' heights with meter sticks, and then reduce the size by 10. After this exercise, they...

Students review the units of the metric system, convert from the US system of units of measure to the metric system, and estimate measures before converting between the two systems of measurement.

In this measurement instructional activity, students fill in a chart with the proper SI units, measurements and symbols. They also practice converting from one metric unit to another. They express numbers in scientific notation.

For this length worksheet, students convert measurements of length from one metric unit to another. They measure line segments, indicate their measurements and read a metric ruler.

Students investigate measurement.  For this fifth/sixth grade mathematics lesson, students explore the relationship between inches and centimeters.  Students measure their height in inches or centimeters and convert the...

In this math worksheet, students practice the skill of converting measurements. The answers are found through using the right conversion formula.

In this calculations review activity, students convert from one metric unit to another, they identify significant figures in numbers, they find density of substances, and they solve problems using dimensional analysis.

It's always nice to hear from friends. Your budding mathematicians read letters from pen pals and convert customary measurements into metric units and vice versa. They also write letters to an imaginary pen pal using metric units.

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.

Is your class in another dimension with regards to dimensional analysis? Give them some extra practice with a straightforward activity. Learners convert units by following concise step-wise examples, including setting up the...

Students take measurements throughout the day using a simple sundial called a gnomon. They record the results on a Data Log and convert from English units to metric (S.I.) units. Data points are plotted on the same graph and analyzed.

One hundred metric tons of CO2 can accumulate in one acre of forest over time—that's a lot of carbon! In the activity, groups of middle school learners determine what makes forests important. They then solidify the concept by using a...

Eighth graders explore the metric system. After a class demonstration, they complete a worksheet on converting metric units. In groups, 8th graders measure their height. They graph the results of the classroom. They convert heights...

Students convert basic measurement in English and Metric Units.

Eighth graders calculate the weight of a limestone block in metric and U.S. customary measurements. Make inferences by applying measurable ratios to known data.

Students write and solve equations converting between metric and standard measurement as they travel southeast on the Al-Can Highway.

Pupils explore how to convert one metric to to another. In this metric unit lesson students are given a worksheet and asked to answer the questions and give and explanation to the class of how they got their answer.

Fifth graders use metric measurement to study the amount a bison eats. In this measurement lesson, 5th graders watch a video about bison and discuss the amount of food they eat. Students weigh their food trays at lunch and complete a...

Fifth graders complete measurement problems where they use powers of ten, read metric measurement tools, estimate measurements, and more. In this measurement lesson plan, 5th graders complete 10 problems.

Students work with measurements of length, area, and volume capacity of a liquid. They watch a teacher demonstration of both English and metric units before they estimate and take actual measurements of assigned items a three different...

Students practice converting measurements using System Internationale (SI). (The metric system is now called System Internationale.) In groups, students measure various objects in the room using the SI system and the standard unit of...

In this online math worksheet, high schoolers practice converting between a variety of metric measurements. When complete, students submit their answers and get instant feedback regarding their accuracy.
