Learning Resources

Lesson Plans:
First of all, follow these lesson plans or use the ideas included to supplement your curriculum. There are 7 weeks or 35 lesson plan ideas.

Vocabulary Cards
Next, print the vocabulary cards and introduce the definitions and sentences throughout the unit. Measurement terms are illustrated and an example sentence is provided

Measurement Songs
Then, use these songs as you introduce each form of measurement. One song is provided for each week to allow further discussion into each type of measurement.

Lesson Plans

Storytelling Lesson
In this resource, each week of instruction includes a storytelling lesson. This lesson introduces your learners to a real-life situation that involves measurement. Use the materials listed in the description and have your learners help you solve the problem. There are a total of seven storytelling lessons in this unit.

Measurement Book Lessons
Each week, learners read books that address different forms of measurement. The books include an activity that can be used to elaborate the concept. The measurement songs can also be sung during these lessons. There are a total of 21 books and activities in this unit.

Interactive Notebook
With this unit, the final day of each week is used for learners to complete an interactive notebook page. Each activity allows the learners to continue to practice and reinforce a skill after the unit is over. There are a total of seven interactive notebook activities in this unit.

Measurement Reader
Read the book How Can I Measure. Each page addresses a new type of measurement and examples of that measurement.

Learning Centers

Math Center | Bigger or Smaller
In this center, have learners sort the flower pictures on the cards that match. Learners may line up the flowers from smallest to biggest.

Math Center | Order By Size
With this resource, have learners place the foods in order of their size.

Math Center | Longer or Shorter
Have learners compare the length of each object to the length of the toolbox. Learners may sort the objects by those longer and those shorter than the toolbox.

Math Center | Measuring Supplies
Have the learners use the cards to determine the length of each of the classroom supplies. Learners may write the length of each on the printable provided.

Math Center | Weight Clip Cards
Have learners clip the image on the card that is heavier than the object on the card.

Math Center | Heavy or Light
Have learners sort the cards on a pocket chart by their weight. Learners may sort the cards under the heavy or light title cards.

Math Center | Graphing Cubes
Have learners grab a handful of cubes from a bin. Learners may create a graph by coloring the graph to show what they got or placing the cubes on the graph mat.

More Learning Centers

Math Center | Roll and Graph
Have learners roll the dice and color in the results for each roll.

Math Center | Clock Puzzles
Have learners match the puzzles by the time shown on a digital and analog clock.

Math Center | Second, Minute or Hour
Have learners clip the amount of time each activity takes on the clip card.

Math Center | Money Sort
Have learners sort the coin facts on a pocket chart. Extra pages are provided for the learners to sort coins on a sorting mat.

Math Center | Needs and Wants
Have learners sort the objects by needs or wants.

Math Center | Holds Less or Holds More
Have learners sort the images on a pocket chart by which holds less and which holds more.

Math Center | How Many Spoons
Provide learners with a variety of cups or containers. Learners may see how many spoonfuls or scoops it take to fill each container.

Learning Standards Included in this Resource

Common Core Standards

Mathematics

CCSSK.MD.A.1

Describe measurable attributes of objects, such as length or weight. Describe several measurable attributes of a single object.

CCSSK.MD.A.2

Directly compare two objects with a measurable attribute in common, to see which object has “more of”/“less of” the attribute, and describe the difference. For example, directly compare the heights of two children and describe one child as taller/shorter.
