In this activity, learners explore the different heating properties of soil and water.

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 math lesson, learners explore the concept of using units to measure length.

In this activity, young learners use different-sized paper 'caterpillars' and various household items to predict and measure their height.

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 math activity, learners pretend there is a special store that lets you pay for toys by their height in pennies.

In this math lesson, learners practice measurement skills as they examine a soap bubble print. Learners follow a recipe to make a soap bubble solution.

In this activity, learners work in pairs to measure each other's ankles with lengths of string.

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 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 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 health and fitness activity, learners focus on the importance of daily physical activity, specifically walking.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers use scales and measures when designing a manufacturing process to ensure that final products are uniform in weight or count.

In this activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Glaciers Activity), learners will measure the rate at which water streams out of a leaky cup.

The demonstration/experiment provides quick proof that air has mass.

Historically, sea floor mapping (bathymetry) was done by soundings.

In this activity, learners will measure their lung capacity by making their own spirometer. Learners will then explore factors that affect the amount of air the lungs can hold.

In this math-based activity, learners model the intensity of light at various distances from a light source, and understand how astronomers measure the amount of sunlight that hits our planet and othe

In this environmental health activity, learners investigate their own vital lung capacities.
