In this mathematics worksheet, students model a batting stance with a regulation size baseball bat. Then they model the batting stance with a souvenir miniature baseball bat. Students measure the length of each bat in centimeters and use...

Give math vocabulary instruction a boost with a set of flash cards covering terms such as centimeter, pound, and thermometer to name a few. Word cards are typed using a bold-style font, and correspond to picture cards that...

Students measure different parts of the human body. In this measurement lesson, students work in pairs to take measurements of human measurements which include: arm span, height, foot length, and wrist to longest finger. They also...

In this measuring height worksheet, learners cut out a measuring bar, using it to measure given lengths and recording the heights next to each colored strip measured.

Third graders measure time and length. Through the use of video and technology, they explore key elements of measurement, such as units and conversion between units. They explore alternate units of measurement and apply measurement to...

In this measuring with centimeters and meters worksheet, learners use the rulers provided to find the length and height of objects. Students solve three problems.

In this measuring length instructional activity, students cut out and use the measuring bar provided to color in the height specified in each bar. Students solve 3 problems.

Students explore what work is, measure work done in moving an object, and tell how energy is related to work in both machines and the human body. In this measuring work lesson plan, students walk up a flight of stairs, measure the height...

Students use the correct tool to measure distances. For this geometry lesson, students use an odometer and ruler correctly as they study maps. They describe how far way something is.

Third graders study the human body. In this health lesson, 3rd graders discuss that everyone's body is growing, measure body parts using a tape measure, and color the body worksheet.

Students explore the concept of measuring length using a one-inch pipe cleaner "inchworm." They listen to the story "Inch By Inch by Leo Lionni and discuss how the animals were measured by the inchworm in the book. In pairs students...

Third graders explore the concept of linear measurements and how they work. Coins are used to reinforce the process.

In this math instructional activity, learners learn to measure common classroom objects or body parts using a standard inches ruler and a centimeter ruler. Students measure 21 objects in both ways.

Young scholars explore estimating and measurement with the story of Jack and the Beanstalk. They read and discuss the story, estimate and measure their own height, circumference, and length of their foot, and draw and paint a giant using...

Fifth graders measure different heights and spans on a classmate's body such as full height, head width, leg length, and arm length. They place the data in a spreadsheet, determine the proportions, and draw a portrait using the proper...

Sixth graders calculate wingspan and the body length of the birds and understand how they relate to how the bird flies. For this wingspan lesson plan, 6th graders also calculate their own "wing span" with their arms.

Students examine how to apply the principles of trigonometry in authentic measurement situations. They work in groups to determine the height of an object such as a flag pole by determine the angle from their position to the top.

Students study the metric system and examine other ways to measure.  For this measurement lesson students complete activities that help them to better understand the measuring system. 

Students accurately measure several common objects using the industrial ruler. They work individually to analyze whether given objects would meet the correct specifications required for a particular manufactured product.

Determine how cup stacking relates to linear equations. Pupils stack cups and record the heights. Using the data collected, learners develop a linear equation that models the height. The scholars then interpret the slope and the...

Second graders practice measuring the lengths of objects. In this measurement lesson, 2nd graders use paper clips to measure objects in the classroom. Students use larger paper clips first and record their answers, then use the smaller...

Students practice estimating and comparing measurements using yards, feet, and inches. They make comparisons about kites and a variety of measurements. Afterwards, they complete an activity sheet and draw a bird kite with long wings and...
