In this measurement enrichment learning exercise, 2nd graders use a picture of a mouse as a unit of non-standard measurement to complete a chart. They record the shortest items and longest item in 2 questions below the chart.

In this paper clip measurement worksheet, 1st graders cut out pictures of paper clips at the bottom of the page. They use the pictures to measure how many paper clips it takes to follow two paths. They color the shorter path blue.

This lesson focuses on unit conversion, proportions, ratios, exponents, and the metric system. Discuss measurement with your math class and demonstrate how to solve several health-science word problems. Give learners a chance to visit an...

In this measuring instructional activity, learners use a centimeter ruler to measure the perimeter of 3 figures. They then draw 4 shapes in the grid on the page.

Square away any doubts about using a new resource. Pupils learn about squares and square roots in the mini-instructional activity. They complete a worksheet identifying roots of perfect squares up to 400.

The 23rd segment in a series of 25 presents random samples from two populations to determine whether there is a difference. Groups determine whether they believe there is a difference between the two populations and later use an...

Young mathematicians identify different cases of intersecting secant lines. They then investigate the case where secant lines meet inside a circle.

How do dilated line segments relate? Lead the class in an activity to determine the relationship between line segments and their dilated images. In the fourth section in a unit of 16, pupils discover the dilated line...

Unfortunately for young mathematicians, the world isn't made entirely of parallelograms, triangles, and trapezoids. After first learning the area formulas for these common shapes, young scholars apply this new knowledge to...

Pupils figure out how to be resourceful when tasked with finding the area of a triangle knowing nothing but its endpoints. Beginning by exploring and decomposing a triangle, learners find the perimeter and area of a triangle. They...

Forget your ID number? Your pupils learn to use logarithms to determine the number of digits or characters necessary to create individual ID numbers for all members of a group. 

Computers are useful for more than just surfing the Internet. Pupils first investigate scatter plots and estimate correlation coefficients. Next, they use Microsoft Excel to create scatter plots and determine correlation...

How hard can it be to measure out two pounds? A short performance task introduces a situation where a balance scale is broken. It gives a method for measuring out two pounds and asks learners to evaluate the procedure. They must prove...

Temper your excitement of temple geometry. Using algebraic and geometry concepts to determine various measurements in a circle diagram, scholars determine the shaded area of the diagram.

In a scale measuring noise, an increase in 10 dB is a 10 time increase in power. Mathematicians examine the data graph of a real world exponential growth, with no logarithmic scale, and then create two equations relating the...

Two sides and an angle ... a triangle it makes. Given the measure to two sides and the angle between them, the narrator of a short video shows how to draw a triangle with a ruler and protractor. Pupils use handouts to practice the newly...

In this liquid measurement reasoning activity, 2nd graders rewrite a recipe converting quarts and pints to cups. They tell how many cups of each ingredient they will use to make fruit punch.

In this backyard map centimeter measurement instructional activity, 1st graders cut out a centimeter ruler from the bottom of the page. They use the ruler to measure the path between objects which are pictures in the backyard map at the...

Use this area of parallelograms practice worksheet to have learner ssharpen their problem solving skills as they solve six story problems.

Using a set of simple data, learners create a line plot to organize the information. This data includes only single-digit numbers and the highest number is six. Because the answer is explained and illustrated at the bottom, project this...

Apply area calculations to everyday situations using these three word problems. Mathematicians must pay attention to the needs of each space, determining the largest or smallest area of several options. Consider expanding on this by...

"Fore!" All right, no one really yells this out in miniature golf, but this well-defined activity will have your charges using lots of numbers in their unique design of a miniature golf hole. Included in the activity criteria is the...
