Challenge students to convert measurements between their metric counterparts! Students will relate the measurements to real-world objects. Use this lesson as support for the Converting Metric Measurements in Word Problems lesson.

In this lesson, students will recognize volume as an attribute of solid figures and learn to calculate volume by counting cubes. This is a great introduction to the formula V = L x W x H.

Graphs bring data to life and help us draw conclusions about the information presented. In this lesson students will engage with three different kinds of graphs by asking and answering interpretive questions.

Students will find volume for rectangular prisms by applying the formulas V = l × w × h and V = b × h.

Marry metric measurements to the everyday world around you! Use this lesson plan to teach your class the fun of converting metric measurements into fractions.

Students will use the inverse relationship between multiplication and division to complete an area formula in a real-world situation. Use this lesson on its own or as support for the lesson The Case of the Missing Rectangle Side.

Students will apply the formula V = l × w × h to find the volume for rectangular prisms in the context of solving real-world problems.

Students will solve area problems by multiplying side lengths for rectangular shapes in real world contexts.

Teach your students to calculate fractions of 100 using a number line model.

Go to any length to test your students' understanding of perimeter calculations. Students will use their understanding of the perimeter of rectangular shapes to create rectangles that have different side measurements but equal perimeters.

If your students need instruction in reading multisyllabic words with long vowel digraphs, then this lesson plan is for you! In this hands-on lesson, students will use manipulatives to break apart and read complex, multisyllabic words.

Teach your students to draw an array using base ten notation to solve multiplication problems with two two-digit factors.

Let your students decorate their own room with this lesson that has them use area to place furniture in a room.

Do you students know their place? Place values, that is. With activities covering the range of thousandths to ten millions, this comprehensive math lesson is sure to please young mathematicians.

Students will begin to calculate volume of different rectangular prisms using base ten cubes and then transition to using the formula V = L x W x H. Students will then practice using the legendary fifth grade activity, Cootie Catchers.

In this lesson, your students will think about situations that require them to calculate area. Use it as a standalone lesson or as support to the What Is the Area of Your Classroom? lesson.

Students will practice calculating volume as an additive property by making mock hamster mansions from boxes. Groups will calculate the volume of living space that they designed for their hamster in cm³ and document their work.

Students will create angles by folding construction paper, creating angle addition sentences, and then adding the sum of angles on their models.
