In this measuring length activity, students measure the length of given line segments. An answer key and reference website for additional resources are given.

In this measuring length learning exercise, students measure 8 line segments to the nearest 1/2 inch. An answer key and reference website for additional resources are given.

In this measurement learning exercise, students measure the length of objects on this learning exercise, with the units given underneath the objects. Students complete 14 problems.

In this measurement instructional activity, students measure the length and height of shapes given to them. Students measure a rectangle, triangle, and circle.

In this measurement worksheet, students review the definition of an inch and use a ruler to measure the 7 objects to the nearest inch.

In this metric measurement of length activity, students answer six questions about estimating, definition and use of a ruler.

Although the graphics on this length comparison exercise aren't great, pupils will get the idea. They read an indirect length word problem, which asks them to compare three animals from shortest to tallest. The wording here may be...

Who has the tallest ice cream cone? Learners read two short word problems to compare the heights of various objects. Because these are paired with images, the objective is more of an image analysis than measurement addition and...

Here is a measurement lesson focusing on length. Learners use their feet as the unit of measurement for furniture in the classroom and at home, and sketch the pieces of furniture they measured.

Students define length and area. They identify materials that can be measured with a rule and yardstick. They measure length and area when given an object.

Students investigate the concept of perimeter. They design there own figure and measure the perimeter of it. The lesson plan is given the context of the shape being a path that is traveled by a ladybug. This provides the shape of the...

Second graders explore dinosaurs and identify them by their size. They compare the dinosaurs with objects around the school or on the playground. Students predict which dinosaurs are the largest and then measure the length of dinosaurs.

Second graders examine the metric system. In this metric system lesson, 2nd graders compare measurements of common objects in metric units. Students compete in a garden scavenger hunt.

Upper graders use a variety of tools to measure liquid and solid ingredients in an ice cream making recipe. Following written and oral directions and accurately timing themselves forms the basis of this lesson.

Students investigate the parts of a tree, measure its circumference and the length and width of its longest branch. The data is compiled and placed into a bar graph.

Examine measurable characteristics of objects to build an understanding of the different ways you can discuss an object's size when comparing it to other objects. After whole group instruction, the class compares and organizes several...

Learners complete word problems dealing with perimeter, area, length of sides, and more. They complete 10 multiple choice word problems.

By splitting rectangles into four equal parts, scholars practice calculating area and determining side length. They begin by determining the area of each rectangle before segmenting it. Then, they use the space provided to split it into...

Students investigate their tracks to determine the number of footsteps it takes to travel the entire length of their bodies. Then they determine the taller of two children and the shorter of two children with their tracks. Students also...

There is only one area calculation problem here, and the explanation is detailed below; consider projecting this as an all-class warm up. Scholars assess a rectangle with given length and width, calculating its area. Next, they break it...

Learners compare the weight of the students's favorite soft toys directly and then indirectly using beads.

In this proportions activity, students identify and complete 8 different problems that include using proportions to build scale models of various animals. First, they use the scale to complete the chart and draw lines representing the...

Peruse these perimeter word problems with beginning geometers, possibly projecting it as an all-class warm up. There are three scenarios here, each with a visual. Scholars determine the perimeter of a swimming pool, find the missing...

Students discover that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side. They are shown how a triangle is formed using three strips such as that the triangle is seen inside the strips.
