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

In this activity, learners use an astrolabe to measure the altitude of objects. Learners will first practice taking measurements by measuring the altitude of trees and buildings.

How do you measure a bubble when it's floating? You can't really, but in this activity, learners can measure the diameter of the ring of suds a bubble leaves on a flat surface.

In this fun hands-on activity, learners whip up a batch of cyber-dough (play dough) using math for measurements.

Put the math of measurement, numbers, and everyday life into improvisational skits.

In this movement and measurement activity, learners jump as far as they can three times, and compare their longest jump to the longest jump of their friends, classmates and/or family members.

This is an activity about lung capacity. Learners will measure their own lung capacity using a homemade spirometer.

In this activity, learners explore the size and scale of dinosaurs. Learners listen to "The Littlest Dinosaurs" by Bernard Most to learn about the different sizes of dinosaurs.

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

This is an activity about turbidity, or the amount of sediment suspended in water.

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

In this activity, learners explore dinosaur skeletons and anatomy. Learners make observations about a T. rex skeleton diagram and then measure the skeleton length and width.

In this activity, caregivers and young learners work together to make a scale from household materials to compare different weights--an essential principle in early math.

In this activity, learners will build thier own balance scale. Learners will explore weight and comparison through this activity.

In this activity, learners will use their chosen material to build the tallest tower possible in under three minutes. This activity uses problem solving and fine motor skills to challenge learners.

In this activity, learners will construct a measuring device (snake "string") to improve their observation skills.

In this meteorological activity, learners get to build their very own anemometer (instrument for measuring wind speed) using a paper cup.

In this activity, learners create a kind of balance device using a wire coat hanger, some string, and paper cups.

In this activity, learners play a card game that explores different size scales--macro, micro and nano.
