Worksheets (10 total):
Students strengthen their conversion skills by practicing a variety of real-world and math-based problems. Worksheet activities include:
Converting between ounces and pounds
Converting minutes to seconds and hours to minutes
Converting liters and milliliters, grams and kilograms, and meters and centimeters
Converting between inches, feet, and yards
Converting gallons, quarts, pints, and cups
Completing two-column conversion tables and word problems
Emoji Math Sort:
Students analyze each task card and decide whether the conversion is correct. They place a smile emoji on correct answers and a frown on incorrect ones. A quick and fun way to check understanding!
Cut-and-Paste Activity:
Students cut and sort items by their correct measurements in a no-prep printable page. This interactive task helps reinforce their understanding of equivalent units in both metric and customary systems.
Real-Life Measurement Exploration:
Students use rulers, measuring cups, and scales to find real objects around the classroom that fit specific conversions. They record their measurements and convert them between units on the recording sheet.
Converting Practice Pages:
Six differentiated pages let students practice time, mass, and volume conversions through charts, tables, and multi-step problems.
Students measure flamingos or dinosaurs printed on task cards, converting between yards and feet. Two difficulty levels are included — one uses whole numbers, and the other includes half-yard measurements — perfect for differentiation across ability levels.
Each player builds their snow day scene by earning pieces for correct answers to conversion task cards. Chance cards make gameplay unpredictable, and the first to complete their snow day wins! All cards focus on converting measurement word problems.
Students walk around the classroom solving conversion problems on task cards. Correct answers go into the classroom bucket, and prizes are awarded at random, keeping students active and motivated.
Teams race to arrange conversion problems in the correct sequence from START to FINISH. The first team done wins! This game builds teamwork and reinforces accurate conversion reasoning under time pressure.
All games include both color and black-and-white versions for easy printing.
