In this trigonometry activity, students convert between degrees and radians. They use the unit circle to identify the measure of angles. There are 28 questions with an answer key.

Second graders research distance between planets and the sun using encyclopedias. They use toilet paper sheets as a unit of measurement (50 million km.) students stand at planet locations using toilet paper to measure distance between.

In this measurement worksheet, students solve 7 word problems and 1 multiple choice test-prep question. Students use non-standard classroom items to estimate and measure objects in order to solve the problems.

Students explore what causes wind, why wind behaves as it does, early cultural beliefs about wind, high and low pressure systems, basic fluid dynamics, units of measurement for wind, and how lift is caused; students create and fly kites.

Students measure the perimeter and area of their polygons. In this geometry lesson plan, students calculate the volume and area using the correct tools. They calculate the time and temperature and the perimeter and side lengths of...

Students apply the properties of a right triangle. In this triangle lesson, students describe and compare radians to degrees. They solve problems using the properties and ratios of a right triangle.

For this geometry worksheet, 10th graders determine area and perimeter of rectangles, given the width and the length. The one page interactive worksheet contains ten questions. Answers and hints are included. 

Student use the scientific method to experiment with worms. In this characteristics of living things lesson, students predict and examine the reactions of worms to dry and wet soil. Students share their findings.
