Students create a ruler for the purpose of measurement using the standard and metric systems. The rulers are of different lengths and are compared to one another. Then students make conversions of different lengths using both systems of...

Learners explore the measurements of capacity by constructing a creative project in the shape of a man. The man has body parts that represent different units of measurement and can be used to make conversions. This is highly concrete and...

In this metric conversion worksheet, students read short statements and convert them to addition and subtraction equations. They convert their answers to a stated metric measure. Students mark models of cylinders to indicate given...

In this language arts worksheet, students examine 12 words in a word bank which pertain to metric measurement. Students locate the words in a word search. The meaning of the title is unclear.

Students design their dream gardens and work together to build a class model. They use software to create a virtual model. They only use metric measurements.

In this mathematics terminology worksheet, students identify and locate various terms related to measurement and the metric system. There are nine words to locate in the puzzle.

In this mathematics terminology worksheet, students identify and locate various terms related to metrics and measurement. There are ten words located in the puzzle.

Third graders use metric measuring for model and actual plan in designing a roof garden. They photograph the process, record results in a journal, and plant seedlings in small containers. Finally, 3rd graders complete an acid rain...

Students practice converting measurements using System Internationale (SI). (The metric system is now called System Internationale.) In groups, students measure various objects in the room using the SI system and the standard unit of...

Fourth graders practice measuring different objects in inches. Individually, they estimate the length of the same object in centimeters and then calculate the actual length. They compare and contrast their estimate to the actual length...

Eighth graders explore the metric system. After a class demonstration, they complete a worksheet on converting metric units. In groups, 8th graders measure their height. They graph the results of the classroom. They convert heights...

This tutorial makes the memorization of metric prefixes fun. Students can race the clock to see how well they have the prefixes memorized.
