Cubed Containers

Students explore how to measure length and volume. They compare and order objects according to their measurable attributes and measure items using non-standard units. Students put 4 pencils in order from shortest to longest after...

Measuring length with nonstandard units is the focus of this word problem worksheet. Youngsters problem solve using cubes, paper clips, footprints, and pencils. They solve six problems.

Here is a very good measurement worksheet. Four problems are solved in which objects at home are measured using the specified nonstandard measurement units such as toothpicks, footsteps and teaspoons.

Weathering is not necessarily a result of the weather. Scholars conduct an experiment to explore the effect of surface area and volume on the weathering process. They create their own sugar cube rocks using the same number of cubes—but...

Six straightforward word problems require learners to use customary units of capacity (pints, quarts, cups, gallons) on this assignment. In order to answer each question, they must write an explanation in the form of a mathematical...

Looking for a well-done presentation on capacity and volume? Then this presentation is for you! Capacity and volume are commonly mistaken for each other by young mathematicians. Of course, one is a measurement of how much a container...

Explore the concept of volume using unit cubes. Working individually or in small groups, your class measures with a ruler in inches and calculates the volume of various rectangular household boxes (provided by the teacher) and completes...

Upper graders explore the topic of volume. In this math lesson plan, pupils count volume in cubic units, multiply to find volume, estimate volume, write a multiplication sentence to find the volume, and make a cost analysis of different...

In this lesson, students will form cubes and discuss their attributes including edges, faces, vertices, and angles. Media resources and teacher materials are included.

Explore the use of non-standard units for measuring volume with elementary learners. They fill a container and count the number used using cups, spoons, and bottles, build with blocks and count the number of blocks used, and compare and...
