Sixth and seventh graders construct a "metric machine" as a kinesthetic aide in converting from one unit to another in grams, liters, or meters. They complete a metric activity on the Internet and view about five minutes of a video on...

Eighth graders gain a better understanding of visual distances and estimation. They actively practice using metric measurement and conversion. Students practice cooperative exploring and team building.

Students measure using both metric and standard measures. They convert from one standard to the next while measuring distances in their home or classroom.

Students explore the concept of measurement. In this measurement lesson, students discuss what specific measurement tools such as an odometer measure. Students recite a measurement poem. Students make a foldable with conversion units...

Students participate in a metric Olympics. In this metric measurement lesson, students participate in 6 events that require them to predict, estimate, and measure lengths, masses, and area in metric units.

Students convert metric units of length, specifically meters, centimeters, and millimeters. In this lesson of converting measurements, students participate in various games which require them to put the measurements in order or convert...

Specific learning goals are grouped for different grade levels spanning pre-kindergarten to eighth grade. After preparing the questions and materials, you call a learner to come in front of the class and play the game. Young learners...

Students discover the need for standard units of measurement. They be engaged in estimation, problem solving, and use of measurement tools to begin an understanding of the metric system.

In this perimeter and area worksheet, 10th graders solve 12 different problems related to perimeter and area of various shapes. First, they determine the area of a parallelogram with a particular base and height. Then, students determine...
