Showing Results for customary measurements

Marry metric measurements to the everyday world around you! Use this lesson plan to teach your class the fun of converting metric measurements into fractions. 

Converting Metric Measurements to Decimals & Fractions

Students will become more familiar with common metric measurements by matching everyday objects with the metric mass and volume units they would use to measure them. 

Estimating Measurements of Mass and Volume Using Metric Units

Challenge students to convert measurements between their metric counterparts! Students will relate the measurements to real-world objects. Use this lesson as support for the Converting Metric Measurements in Word Problems lesson.

Metric Conversions Conversations

In this hands-on lesson, your students will get to sharpen their measuring skills as they measure lengths of items in your classroom to the nearest quarter inch. They'll get to then use their data to create line plots.

Making Measurements for Line Plots

Teach your students to calculate fractions of 100 using a number line model. 

Metric Measurements, Fractions and Number Lines

Get your students explaining estimations and measurements of liquid volumes and masses of objects! Use this lesson independently or alongside *Estimating Measurements of Mass and Volume Using Metric Units.*

Which Unit of Measurement?

Support your students as they collect, organize, and discuss measurement data! Use this lesson independently or alongside *Making Measurements for Line Plots*. 

Collect, Organize, and Discuss the Data

Get your students comfortable discussing their math thinking in converting centimeters to meters. This lesson may be used on its own or as support to the lesson Converting Metric Measurements to Decimals & Fractions. 

Converting Centimeters to Meters

Students will become more familiar with common metric measurements when working with mass and volume. In this lesson, kids tackle three worksheets to practice solving one-step metric unit word problems. 

Solving Word Problems Involving Mass and Volume

Advance your students from relative measurements to learning about standardized units with this lesson that teaches them about inches and feet by using common classroom objects. 

Estimating Length

Go to any length to test your students' understanding of perimeter calculations. Students will use their understanding of the perimeter of rectangular shapes to create rectangles that have different side measurements but equal perimeters.

Perfect Perimeter

Students will find angle sums using a baseball diamond diagram.

Adding Angles

How big is a foot? Students find out to explore how to measure in feet by comparing their own feet to rulers. Then they set off to measure the length and width of the classroom!

Measuring Feet…in Feet!

Your students will jump into math concepts like measurement and comparison with this delightful investigative activity! How far do kangaroos jump? Pretend to be a kangaroo and find out!

Hopping Into Measurement

Measure to the nearest quarter-inch with your students and teach them to organize data into a line plot graph using this highly interactive lesson plan!

Heights on a Data Line Plot

Get your students talking about how they can apply the concept of perimeter to real life. Use this lesson independently or alongside *Find the Perimeter: Real Life Objects.*

Real Life Perimeter

Students will solve area problems by multiplying side lengths for rectangular shapes in real world contexts. 


Geometry Real Word Problems

This math lesson is filled with fun hands-on non-standard measurement activities! The lesson begins with an interactive story then has students explore measurement using several different objects as their tools!

Measurement Madness

Look out! Measurement is all around us! In this lesson, students will learn about measuring tools and how to use them. Students will work cooperatively on a fun measurement hunt, exploring and applying concepts of measurement using inches.

Inches, All Around!

Students will find volume for rectangular prisms by applying the formulas V = l × w × h and V = b × h.

Volume and Rectangular Prisms

This support lesson provides students the opportunity to use two different tools to measure the length of familiar objects while introducing content specific vocabulary words. Use alone or alongside the lesson How Big is the Playground?

Many Measurement Tools

Get out the measuring tape and head outside! In this lesson, students gather measurement data and build a model of the school playground. 

How Big is the Playground?

Looking for a fun way to learn about measurement? Inch on over to this engaging lesson. Students will love using their own feet to determine the lengths of different objects.


Footy Fun!

Get your students up and moving as they learn the basics of geometry. Your competitive students will love this game and put their new skills to the test with a worksheet.

Angles, Lines, and Movement, Oh My!

In this lesson, your students will use hands-on visuals to learn about fractions! Your students will love using manipulatives to practice placing fractions on a number line.

Dividing Shapes and Lines

Students will learn to convert metric units by applying concepts in word problems. Exercises and worksheets incorporate length (meters), and optional practice offers more instructions on mass (grams) and volume (liters).

Converting Metric Measurement in Word Problems

Get ready to shake things up with this fun measurement lesson! Students start by seeing if they can fit under a meter stick and then turn their attention to creating towers to fit under the meter stick.

Meter Stick Mambo

In this lesson, your students will measure the lengths of items and then make a line plot to show the measurement data. They will get hands-on by measuring and surveying the class.


Line Plots: Representing the Length of Classroom Items

Obtuse, acute, and right angles, oh my! In this hands-on lesson, students will learn about different kinds of angles through motion. Mastering this pre-geometry skill will help kids tackle advanced math as they get older.

What’s Your Angle?

Give your students practice creating models with fractions from recipes! Your students will build an appetite for learning all about fractions, while “filling” measuring cup models with different ingredients to represent fractions.
