In this self-measuring activity, learners measure and record the length of their foot.

In this math activity, learners create their own units of measurement by making noodle rulers. Learners practice estimating and measuring objects using the noodle rulers .

In this "Sid the Science Kid" activity, learners use their bodies to measure a room. Instead of inches or feet, how many kids does it take to measure the length of a room?

In this math activity, learners use non-standard measurement (paces) to find the distance from one point to another. Learners practice estimating and measuring distances .

In this math lesson, learners explore the concept of using units to measure length. Learners first read "How Big is a Foot" by Rolf Myller and learn about units.

This activity (located on page 2 of PDF) introduces learners to the real size of animals using nonstandard measurement.

In this math activity, learners jump and measure how far they can jump on different surfaces using different jumping techniques.

In this activity learners will plant grass seed and track the growth of the grass over time.

In this activity, learners explore the size and scale of dinosaurs. Learners listen to "The Littlest Dinosaurs" by Bernard Most. Then, learners estimate the size of a Triceratops and T.

In this activity, learners keep track of how much paper the group uses in a week. Build awareness of paper waste, while strengthening measurement and estimation skills.

In this self-measuring activity, learners observe and record how many times a minute they blink, take a breath, and chew, as well as how many times a minute their heart beats.

In this activity, learners explore and experiment how we can use our bodies everyday to get from one place to another.

In this "Sid the Science Kid" activity from Episode 107: My Shrinking Shoes, learners observe how plants change as they grow.

In this activity, learners will be working with predictions with a time frame of one week, or longer. Start by planting seedlings.

In this international citizen science activity, learners measure their night sky brightness and submit their observations into an online database.

In this activity, learners use their senses to collect information about a fruit and record their findings in a Science Journal.

In this activity, learners will decide together on a question about how far, long or high the group could reach together.

In this activity, learners create a map of a hidden surface using a "sounding stick" -- a technique similar to how underwater maps were once made.

Put math of measurement into lining up — and make waiting in line fun. Choose a size characteristic that learners can physically compare, such as foot length or hair length.

In this activity, learners "go fishing," then practice ruler use and size/pattern comparison with the animals they catch.
