  • Worksheet
  • Join to access all included materials

After a class discussion that revolves around the measurements that most milk cartons come in, learners dig deeper to understand the mathematical relationships between these units of measurement. A very cute, and quite-effective "measurement cow" worksheet is used by learners to get a visual image of the relationships between gallons, quarts, pints, and cups. This is a good teaching tool for the young ones!
