Learners conduct an experiment to determine how the change in ramp height affects the distances a ball is able to move a stationary cup. Data is collected from several trials and recorded and analyzed.

In this mathematical worksheet, students estimate and predict the height, stem length, diameter, circumference and weight of five pumpkins against their actual measurements.

In this geometry worksheet, students examine the height of 4 trees. They tell which tree is the tallest, make comparisons in 2 questions. They look at a picture of a pen, and a blue strip which they compare to the given units of measure...

In this comparing heights of famous landmarks worksheet, 2nd graders use the data given to solve six problems about which landmark is taller.

Students explore geometry by conducing a student measurement activity. For this height lesson, students identify their own height by utilizing a tape measure and marking their height on a wall. Students identify their height in...

In this math worksheet, learners will work in small groups to measure the height of objects, such as trees, using their shadows. Students will be able to determine heights of objects that cannot be directly measured.

Students model the effects of wind speed and water depth on the height of waves during a hurricane. In this meteorology lesson, students use a flexible straw and a 9X 13 baking dish to measure the differences in wave height. 

In this measuring length and height worksheet, students measure the lines with arrows on different shaped objects and fill in the length, height, base, or diameter boxes with the correct measurements. Students write five answers.

Students identify the different properties of triangles. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between congruent and similar triangles. They use mathematical reasoning to solve word problems.

In this statistics lesson, learners use an on-line form generator create a class-specific form, then complete the form, view a graph and data analysis, and draw conclusions.

Four triangles are depicted for learners to construct on a geoboard. They compute and compare the areas, and so meet one of the sixth grade Common Core standards for geometry. Note that the set of triangles does not include a right...

How do we measure something? As learners are beginning to grasp the idea of a consistent unit of measurement, give them this activity as a warm-up. They see an apple with a column of blocks beside it. Ask them how high the apple is,...

How many paperclips high is a fork? How many blocks long is a bottle? Kindergartners demonstrate their understanding of the measurable attributes of objects by responding to four prompts that ask them to determine the length a fork, a...

Provide your class some practice with the dimensions of geometric figures. Here you have a set of three different-shaped, stemmed drinking glasses with diameters and heights provided. Math-minded individuals calculate the volume of each....

Whether you have your class plant seeds or begin when sprouts are visible, math skills are used here to predict and track growth over time. Straw bar graphs show plant height on a given day while the graph as a whole shows changes over...

Your learners will be tantalized by this inquiry-based, collaborative activity as they discover how to write an equation that represents the height of an ice cream cone. Given the scenario based on the poem, "Eighteen Flavors," and...

Here is a fun little exploration of the potential energy potential of falling water. Learners drop water from various heights using a straw, and they analyze the diameter of the splash. Pair this with two more activities of the same...

Middle schoolers investigate the validity of da Vinci's proportion theory by recording human measurements on scatter plots. In groups of three, they record each other's height and wingspan to create a Powerpoint presentation, chart, or...

Students calculate acceleration due to gravity with the measurements of the period of a pendulum or measurements of the time for an object to fall from different heights. They observe and measure the effect of air resistance on the...

Math whizzes utilize spreadsheets to examine linear modeling. They roll marbles down a ramp from three different heights and measure how far they roll. They use Excel to record their data and create a plot of their data.

Nineteen word problems dealing with frequency, speed, reflection, and refraction of light are provided here. Empower your physics masters to manipulate equations for computing angles, focal lengths, image heights, and more! This is a...

After viewing a short video about a climb up Mount Everest, high schoolers read about triangulation for measuring distant elevations. Have your class work in groups to construct an inclinometer and then use it to measure the height of...

Though the publisher designated this unit for use with third through eighth grades, this particular lesson would be best used with middle schoolers due to the specific measurement skills required. Basically, they set up the reaction...

Different varieties of Christmas trees provide an interesting way to combine social studies, science, math, and technology. Class members not only research the history of the Christmas tree holiday tradition, they compare and...
