In this square units worksheet, 3rd graders complete word problems about the amount of square units shown. Students complete 10 problems.

Max Born and Fritz Haber developed the Born-Haber cycle in 1916, which is used for measuring enthalpy that otherwise couldn't be measured. Young scientists solve four matching puzzles using their knowledge of the stages, standard...

This interactive focuses on measuring objects using coins as units of measurement. They measure tools, trains, mice, and shoes.

In this lesson students will practice finding the perimeter of regular and irregular shapes with right angles and the appropriate units for measuring perimeter.

What kind of unit conversion would you like to do? This site will allow you to do a multitude of conversions. Just click on the specific measurement you are needing to convert. It also provides a history of measurements and a chart of...

This activity will help children use units to measure length, add two lengths to create a whole, and use words for describing length such as longer and shorter. Sheets of paper become pieces of wood as they construct a bridge for a...

This interactive game has students apply skills in estimation, measurement, and basic addition using pearls. Students are asked to estimate the number of pearls in a treasure chest by making predictions and using number sense. The skills...
