Let's Make Fudge
Learners make fudge after reading fractional values in recipes and finding equivalent fractions to those presented in the recipes. They study measurement abbreviations.
Curated OER
ExplorA-Pond:2nd Grade Perimeter
Second graders visit a real pond. They estimate the pond's perimeter using "student feet." In groups, they measure the pond's perimeter-each group measuring a section of the shoreline. They convert student feet into actual feet and find...
Curated OER
Activity #4 The Density of Irregularly Shaped Solids
Students comrehend that water displacement is a simple way to measure the volume of a solid object. They pour water into a graduated cylinder or measuring cup and its volume is read and recorded. Pupils the volume of an object by...
Curated OER
Circles-Diameter, Circumference, Radius and the Discovery of Pi
Seventh graders measure the diameter, circumference and radius of a circle and find pi using the diameter and circumference. In this geometry lesson, 7th graders work in groups to find the diameter, radius, and circumference of circles....
Curated OER
King Henry Did What?
Students convert between the different metric units after reading the Fairy Tale of King Henry. They measure various candies in a baggy using the width of their index finger. They record results to the nearest index finger width on a...
Curated OER
Reaction Time
Third graders review important vocabulary to explain measures of central tendency and reaction time. In pairs, they measure reaction time of dropping and catching a ruler. Data is collected after repeated catches and information is...
Curated OER
The North (Wall) Star
Students engage in a lesson which shows them that celestial navigation is the art and science of finding one's geographic position by means of astronomical observations, particularly by measuring altitudes of celestial objects - sun,...
Curated OER
Reflecting on Reflectivity
High schoolers plan and construct a "mini-lab" to measure the reflectivity of different earth surfaces. They measure reflectivity of materials, including ice, soil, rocks, etc., and then extrapolate from what they have learned to...
Curated OER
Length of an Arc and Area of a Sector
In this length of an arc and area of a sector worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 12 different types of problems. First, they find the length of an arc in a circle with a given radius and central angle measure. Then, students find...
Curated OER
Circumferences, Diameters, and Radii
Students explore circumferences, diameters, and radii. In this math lesson plan, students measure circumferences in inches and compute radii and diameters, given different circumferences.
Curated OER
Square Circles
Students find the perimeter and diameter of given shapes. In this square circles lesson, students measure circles and squares. They explore the relationship between the circumference of a circle and its diameter. Students examine the...
Curated OER
Mini-Metric Olympics
Students participate in a Mini-Olympics with measurements. In this measurement lesson, students throw items and predict how far they will go. They measure the actual distance and find the difference between that and their estimate.
Curated OER
Leaping!
Students properly leap and measure their distance. In this leaping lesson, students practice leaping for accuracy and proper form. Students estimate their leaps and measure with rulers. Students determine distance covered by the entire...
Curated OER
"Space" Exploration
Fourth graders identify the attribute of volume of an object. Units of measurement are reviewed and utilized in this lesson.
Curated OER
One, Two, Three...and They're Off
Students make origami frogs to race. After the race they measure the distance raced, collect the data, enter it into a chart. They then find the mean, median, and mode of the data. Next, students enter this data into Excel at which time...
