Simple definitions explain how speed and velocity are related. A brief list of examples will show you different speeds that you observe in real life situations.

Grams, kilograms and tonnes are explained, and real life examples are given for each.

Unit reasoning helps us make sense of measurements by converting between measurement units and making reasonable estimates. For the Praxis test, we need to know common measurement units for length, time, volume, and mass, as well as how...

A practice quiz where students must choose the appropriate metric unit and amount to estimate the volume of each object. Includes hints.

Practice converting a metric measure of length to a smaller unit. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

Practice converting a metric measure of mass to a smaller unit. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

Practice converting a metric measure of volume to a smaller unit. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

Practice estimating the length of real life objects using metric units. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

A challenge that combines skills in problem solving and logical reasoning. See if you can figure out who will win the race by determining the rate of speed of each runner. A one page activity from NCTM Math Challenges for Families...

Convert distance measures between the English (inches, feet and yards) and metric (mm,cm,meters,km). It is intended to help with both your math skill and your understanding of the metric system.

Perform problems involving converting volumes between the English and metric systems to help develop math skills.

This lesson will introduce young scholars to measuring weight, mass, volume, and capacity using metric and cutomary units. This lesson plan was created by exemplary Alabama Math Teachers through the AMSTI project.
