Logical thinking is at the forefront of this jam-packed lesson, with young mathematicians not only investigating geometric concepts but also how they "know what they know". Through each activity and worksheet, learners wrestle with...

Get things moving with this elementary science unit on simple machines. Through a series of nine lessons including teacher demonstrations, hands-on activities, and science experiments, young scientists learn about forces, motion,...

Leave no student behind with this differentiated geometry unit on perimeter and area. Over the course of five lessons, young mathematicians explore these foundational concepts through a series of self-selected hands-on activities and...

Take young geologists on an exploration of the rock cycle with this six-lesson earth science unit on rocks and minerals. Through a series of discussions, demonstrations, and hands-on investigations your class will learn...

How do you write a number in scientific notation? The handout and video provide an explanation on how to convert from standard form into scientific notation and vice versa. The resource also contains a short discussion about choosing...

Cover some serious area in your geometry curriculum with this collection of worksheets. After first introducing the concept of area using the tiling method, this resource continues on to teach learners how to use...

Young geometers become pool sharks in this analysis of the angles and lengths of a trick shot. By using angles of incidence and reflection to develop similar triangles, learners plan the exact placement of balls to make the shot....

Adorable drawings of flowers, vines, and animal statues adorn this worksheet. On it, youngsters compare sizes and label each accordingly. There are four flowers, four vines, and four statues to analyze. Use this to address Common Core...

For this measurement worksheet, 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.

Give pupils a ruler and this instructional activity so that they can practice measuring down to the quarter inch! Drawings of six various objects are depicted for them to apply their measurement skills to. The assignment concludes with...

In this units of measurement worksheet, students estimate and then measure each of the 3 pictures to the nearest inch. Students then use the measurements to solve 3 story problems.

Students calculate the mean, median, mode, range, and interquartile range for a set of data. They create a box and whisker plot using paper, pencil and technology.

For this measurement worksheet, students will put their shoe on their paper and trace around it. Then students will color in blank unifix cubes to match the length of their shoe.

In this units of measure worksheet, students mentally convert measured units within the metric system. This three-page worksheet contains two-pages. Answers are provided beside each question.

Students calculate the length of the classroom using non-standard units of measurement and estimation. Using a cracker box, they discuss measuring various objects in the room as a class, and independently estimate and measure the length...
