In this Cyberchase activity, learners make carpenter's squares and use them to measure square corners. Learners cut out the carpenter's square template and attach it to tagboard.

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

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 outdoor activity, learners measure familiar objects in nature to practice working with the metric system.

In this activity, learners investigate circulation and measure their own your heartbeat. A heart rate, or pulse, is the number of times the heart beats per minute.

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 plant grass seed and track the growth of the grass over time.

In this activity, learners will measure the length of their shadow from the Sun and compare it three to four months later.

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 activity, learners will explore how maps can provide information about a place and help us find our way from one location to another.

In this activity, learners make an astrolabe, a device used for measuring altitude, including the height of objects in the sky.

This activity models the way Landsat satellites use a thermal infrared sensor to measure land surface temperatures.

In this math activity, learners trace their hands and estimate the number of beans that can fit into their hand tracings. Then, learners glue the beans to the tracing to test out their estimations.

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 investigate whether more people are squares or rectangles. People with similarly sized heights and arm spans are classified as squares.

In this activity, learners use recycled materials to build a bridge that holds as many potatoes as possible. They investigate weight, height, strength, and measurement as they seek design solutions.

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

In this coin math activity, learners sort and stack 100 (one hundred) pennies into piles of 5 pennies each, 10 pennies each, and 20 pennies each.

In this activity, learners investigate parallax, a method used to measure distances to stars and planets in the solar system.
