In this weight measurement worksheet, students number the objects in order from heaviest to lightest in the 8 examples. Students write 1 next to the heaviest and 3 next to the lightest.

For this weight measurement instructional activity, learners study the objects in the 11 examples. Learners circle the object that appears to be heavier.

In this student exploration-weight and mass worksheet, student use the Weight and Mass Gizmo to answer questions and fill in charts with estimating and measuring.

In this customary units of weight worksheet, students use the math table that shows the normal weight of balls used in various professional sports. Students use the numbers in each table to solve the problems.

Third graders practice measuring different objects. They discover the concepts of ratio and proportion and practice converting numbers into the correct unit. They read stories as well to help them with the concepts.

In this weight comparisons worksheet, students circle the picture of the heavier object in each set. Students underline the picture for the lighter object. Students finish by drawing items on the balance that have the same weight.

In this using a balance to compare weights activity, 3rd graders compare two weights in pounds and ounces, write "balanced" if they are equal or circle the one that is heavier if they are not equal.

Although it was written to use in a science class, this measurement lesson is adaptable to Common Core standards in math for measurement and data. Youngsters are introduced to two types of measurement systems. They use both the...

In this math review for grade 2 (2.3) worksheet, 2nd graders answer 25 multiple choice questions in standardized test format about measurement and geometric shapes.

Baseball is all about statistics. Pupils solve problems related to mean, median, and range. They calculate the total weight of players given the mean weight, calculate the mean weight of reserve players given the mean weight of the...

In this comparing weight measurement learning exercise, students observe rows of objects and identify the heaviest ones. Students solve 2 problems. 

Find the math in recipes. Young chefs will follow a recipe and investigate the total cost for materials. They measure amounts of food necessary for the recipe and compute the per person cost.

Learners estimate and determine the number of cents (pennies) that are needed to equal the mass of a variety of common objects. They develop a process for measuring and explore concepts related to units of measurement.

Bend it, but don't break it. Groups investigate the strength of different materials. Using a procedure in the seventh segment of a 22-part series on aviation, pupils determine how far a rod will bend. They determine the strength-to-mass...

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...

Third graders engage in a lesson that is concerned with the estimate and approximation of different masses. They weigh different objects and compare the different measurements and then use a balance to compare them. Students define the...

Students discuss the word weight, how much they weigh and the conccept of heavy and light. They hear the story of measurement and the metric system. They work in groups and measure and record items found in the classroom and use a...

Students investigate how weight affects a parachute's rate of fall.  In this investigative lesson students test parachutes, average results and conclude what makes a faster descent.

In this weights and measures learning exercise, learners complete a word search puzzle. They identify words dealing with weights and measurements which are both customary and metric measure. A list of 15 words are included in this...

In this length, weight and measures 2 worksheet, 3rd graders draw lines to match three objects to the tool needed to measure each one and the unit of measure used in metric.

In this weight worksheet, students, with a partner, problem solve the answers to six word problems involving weight and everyday items found around the house and the classroom.

In this how do you measure up activity, students interactively answer 10 multiple choice questions about measurement, then click to check their answers.

Third graders listen to Susan Hightower's, "Twelve Snails to One Lizard" and discuss the need for standard units of measurement. They make a body model on butcher paper which they use to measure their body parts and complete a worksheet....
