Fourth graders explore the different types of ways to measure the distance between Florida and Japan.

Students explore how structural forms adapt to evolving world cultures. In groups, students examine posters from the past and write about the picture. Students make predictions about what the picture will look like in the future....

Ninth graders find the height of an object that would be difficult or impossible to measure directly. They construct and use a Clinometer to measure the angle of elevation (or depression). Students create a sketch of the measurement...

Fourth graders investigate a range of circles, each with a different radius, diameter and circumference and assemble this information in their search for relationships.The measurement of circles and the relationships to be found within...

Pupils decide what body measurements they need to make garments such as a pair of pants. They make a list, and work with a partner to take and record those measurements in centimeters. They discuss the use of centimeters.

Students study the techniques of building a bridge. They explore different type of bridges and then plan and build a bridge to specified instructions. Students draw plans, keep a budget, and prepare balance sheets during their bridge...

Students demonstrate how a whale uses echolocation to track food and identify one other animal that also uses echolocation. In this echolocation lesson, students play a game where one child (the whale) is blindfolded and gives a signal...

On this interactive site students learn to estimate lengths and distances using kilometers, explain the difference between perimeter and area, and measure the volume of a 3D object by counting the cubic centimeters.

Determine the missing side lengths to find the perimeter.

Students will learn and reinforce skills for measuring perimeter and area of 2D shapes and measuring surface area and volume of 3D shapes.

Determine the area of a rectangle by multiplying the sides.

Determine the area of a triangle.
