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 activity, young learners and their caregivers use non-standard tools, like M&Ms and paper clips, to measure things around their home.

In this Cyberchase activity, have fun measuring volumes and enjoy a delicious shake.

In this activity, learners make pretend snakes and use them to explore estimation and measurement. Learners roll out clay snakes and estimate and measure their lengths and diameters.

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

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.

In this activity, learners make their own pinhole viewer in order to measure the size of the sun.

In this activity on page 3 of the PDF, learners investigate how much sugar is in a soda. Learners use sugar cubes to measure and calculate the amount of sugar in a bottle of soda.

In this activity, learners use measurement concepts to make models of what their body parts might look like if they were a snake or a chameleon.

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 build a tool called an inclinometer that can find the height of any distant object, from a tree to the North Star.

In this activity, learners measure the diameter of their water balloons, model an impact, measure the diameter of the “crater” area, and determine the ratio of impactor to crater.

In this activity, Frankenstein's lab is running out of electricity! Learners use fruit to help Igor find a temporary source of energy to turn on a light.

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

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

In this hands-on activity, learners make New Year's Eve party hats out of wrapping paper. Learners use symmetry and measurement to cut out shapes they need to assemble the hats.

In this activity, learners will estimate the sizes of balls to learn how to estimate the size of hail. Learners will compare their estimates to the estimates of their peers and the real measurements.

Learners investigate signs of a chemical reaction when they mix vinegar and baking soda. In addition to a gas being produced, learners also notice the temperature decreases.

In this activity (26th on the page), learners construct an easy-to-build device and test motor learning.
