In this math review instructional activity, 3rd graders respond to 14 questions that serve as a review of measurement, patterns, number sense, properties, story problems, and computation.

Students have the opportunity to observe, measure and analyze the density of aerosol shaving creams and foams generated from shampoo and dishwashing liquids or detergents.

Second graders investigate volume through the use of measuring cups. They complete a variety of measuring tasks using kitchen measuring cups. Students accurately measure the volume and compare the results.

Students convert measurements within the metric system. In this measurement lesson, students explore the different units of the metric system and practice converting numbers from one unit to another.

Students construct using Cabri software. In this geometry lesson, students convert between units and apply the correct measurements to build objects. They create the room virtually and manipulate the shapes to the desired measurements.

Students analyze velocity and how it is determined. They experiment with velocity in order to measure and calculate the magnitude of speed. They use examples in their novel "Skateboard Renegade" to relate velocity to real life situations.

In this density of the human body activity, learners measure several parts of the body to calculate the body volume. Students convert the body volume to body mass and body density.

Students work with thermometers to complete problems about temperature. They investigate cooling patterns, how location affects temperature, and what happens when water having different temperature is mixed. They measure temperature in...

Students study units of measure like cups, pints, quarts and gallons. They work in groups to create their own mixtures of trail mix using the measuring cups. Then they make a gorilla puzzle using a gallon bottle.

Students create packages with a maximum capacity. In this geometry instructional activity ,students estimate using whole numbers, decimals and fractions. They calculate length, weight and mass of packaging.

In this unit students use the traditional tale of the gingerbread man as a context for ordering and comparing lengths. They compare the length of two objects directly, order three or more objects by length and select objects that are...

Seventh graders identify the factors that determine the strength of the friction forces when two objects push against each other. Describing the difference between weight and mass, they participate in experiments. They state the law of...

Pupils investigate the history of the waterwheel and common uses for water turbines today. They construct an experimental waterwheel using a two-liter plastic bottle, measure the rate of revolution of a waterwheel, and complete a...

Students investigate water usage at school and at home. They use graphs and tables to evaluate water usage. Students describe possible water conservation measures. They use graphs and tables to relate data as part of a written report.

Note that although the publisher lists almost all of the Common Core standards for both math and language arts, you will most likely want to take the general topic and choose which area to focus on. Regarding math, pupils measure worms...

You're going to wish you had a watermelon for this lesson! Class members read about watermelons and make a salad in class to sample. They also perform estimates, measurements and calculations on a watermelon. They predict what percentage...

In this space flight worksheet, high schoolers will review physics terms relating to space which includes measuring the distance of space objects, how rockets work, and electromagnetic waves. This worksheet has 10 terms in a crossword...

High schoolers are introduced to the structure of an atom and Dalton's atomic theory through a short video and mini-lecture. They also take a look at the weight of mass and become familiar with the idea of quantum theory

In this unit, 3rd graders investigate one variable to see if they can make a paper plane fly farther. They use scatter plots to establish a possible relationship between variables then use what they have found to make a paper plane to...

Learners conduct experiments in gravity by rolling objects down an incline and determining which ones roll slower than others. As part of the experiment, they design objects which will roll the slowest. Using digital movie cameras or...

Students make an anemometer, barometer, and wind catcher to see how wind and air pressure are related. In this wind lesson plan, students use these tools to measure the wind speed.

Young scholars study the historical figures and symbols of U.S. patriotism depicted on the penny, nickel, dime, and quarter coins. They create a balance scale from common materials to measure the approximate weight of a quarter.

Students begin to recognize that objects have many measurable attributes. They examine how to identify and accurately measure attributes of common objects. Also Students report their measurement findings.

Students experiment to discover the relationship between the stretch of a spring and the amount of weight attached to the spring using Skittles. They use a CBR and a graphing calculator to gather data.
