Students explore weight. For this math lesson, students predict which item weighs more and discuss how they arrived at their decision. Students weigh several items to determine which weighs more.

Second graders participate in a Scavenger Hunt to find out how long 1 cm is. They then find 10 objects that estimate to be 1 cm in length and record their findings on the table provided and check their estimates using a ruler.

Fourth graders practice measuring different objects in inches. Individually, they estimate the length of the same object in centimeters and then calculate the actual length. They compare and contrast their estimate to the actual length...

Get third graders excited to work find area and perimeter of unit squares, rectangles, and irregular shapes. A 36-page packet comes with task cards, graphic organizers, practice worksheets, printables with squares, exit tickets, and word...

In this converting imperial units worksheet, students complete converting 12 metric units from imperial units to metric or vice versa.

In this mental math activity, students calculate area, volume, perimeter, and convert units in two mental math tests of ten problems each. 

Second graders investigate the measurement of 1 meter. They predict and measure how many strips of paper it takes to make exactly one meter. Students devise and use problem solving strategies to solve the problem.

Students observe how to measure in metric units.  In this investigative lesson students compare different units of volume to see how things are measured.

Eighth graders calculate the weight of a limestone block in metric and U.S. customary measurements. Make inferences by applying measurable ratios to known data.

In this science measurement learning exercise, students practice calculating volume, density, and area as it relates to science experiments. This learning exercise has 4 multiple choice and 2 problems to solve.

Students explain how wind direction affects sail angle. In this physics lesson, students measure the speed of the yacht while varying different factors. They summarize and share their finding to class.

Learners discover the relationship between lens shape and the formation of images in an experiment. They use three different size converging lenses and a diverging lens to calculate and compare the focal length of each. They graph and...

Sixth graders apply knowledge of how to calculate the area and perimeter of triangles. They determine why it is inappropriate to measure the area of land by its perimeter which is done in certain areas of New Guinea. They complete a...

In this ratios for area and volume worksheet, students solve problems where they find the ratios for problems of shapes dealing with area and volume. Students complete 4 problems.

In this imperial units activity, students read the definitions to the following list of imperial units: mile, pint, gallon, foot, inch and pound.

Students complete experiments in which they discover the effect of the weight of the air above them. They use different weights of paper to complete the experiment. They also examine thunderstorm safety.

Solids come in many shapes and sizes. Using geometry, scholars create two-dimensional cross-sections of various three-dimensional objects. They develop the lesson further by finding the volume of solids. The module then shifts...

In this geometry worksheet, students investigate the missing side of  triangles given the other two sides. There are 5 questions with a solution key.

If you need a way to assess the concepts in your physical science class, use an extended set of worksheets as a midterm or final exam. It includes questions about density, physical and chemical matter, speed and velocity, weight and...

Every pupil with a sweet tooth will be clamoring for this lab and analysis, particularly when they're allowed to eat the results! Volume and surface area formulas for cones are developed from models, and then extended to the printing of...

This is a webpage that contains five word problems requiring learners to find the least common multiple or least common denominator.

Young scholars practice using a protractor and ruler to draw various points and lines. Using a computer, they draw the points and lines in the program and describe the differences between their drawing and the computer's drawing. They...
