Time Quiz
This is an interactive online quiz about telling time on an analog clock or telling elapsed time between two clocks. Choose "Level" to change the difficulty.
Elapsed Time- This site is from Harcourt Brace.
What Time Will It Be- Play this game to practice elapsed time.
How Much Time Has Passed?- A great teaching tool to show elapsed time. You set the first clock to the time the activity started. The second clock needs to be set for the ending time. As you count the elapsed time on the clock, the computer keeps track of how many hours and minutes that passed.
Date- Practice using a calendar.
B-4
Read thermometers in both Fahrenheit and Celsius scales.
Reading a Thermometer- Practice reading thermometers at this interactive site.
Make Your Own Thermometer- Follow the simple directions to make a thermometer and watch how it works.
Hot Stuff- Estimate temperatures using a Fahrenheit thermometer.
Be a Scientist- Estimate temperatures using a Celsius thermometer.
B-5
Estimate and measure length, weight, and volume (capacity), using metric and U>S> customary units, accurate to the nearest 1/2 or 1/4 unit as appropriate.
Measure It game- In this game students measure an object in inches or centimeters, from easy to difficult.
Estimator- This online activity has the student estimate lenght, quantity, or area. They can control how close they need to be to the true answer, how difficult the problem is, and if a grid is given to help with the estimate.
Using a Ruler- This interactive website has students read a random position on a ruler to the nearest 1/8. Note: the students have to type out the full measure (such as 2 and 1/4 inches) so correct spelling is needed.
Virtual Ruler- This interactive website gives the student a line of random length. Then the student has to move a virtual ruler to measure the length of the line segment to the nearest 1/8. Finally the student needs to type in correct length (correct spelling is required).
MeasuringLines (Centimeters)- Move the ruler to measure the line given. If your answer is right, you will get another line to measure, if not, try again.
Metric Measurement- These sites teach about length, volume, mass, and temperature using the metric system. Learn the history of the system and what the prefixes mean. Includes several sites to convert and classroom activities on measurement. An eTheme Resource on customary measurement is included.
Measurement Quiz- This is a great interactive online quiz about measurement using centimeters or inches. In the quiz you measure a variety of colorful fish with a virtual ruler. Choose "Level" to change the difficulty and level of precision.
Jack the Builder- Jack the builder is hopeless at measuring because he does not know his units of measurements. Help him to learn his kilometers from his kilograms.
Estimator- This online activity has the student estimate length, quantity, or area. They can control how close they need to be to the true answer, how difficult the problem is, and if a grid is given to help with the estimate. Be sure to click the "Help" tab to get instructions.
B-6
Use appropriate measurement tools and techniques to construct a figure or approzimate an amount of specified length, weight, or volume (capacity); e.g., construct a rectangle with length two and one-half inches and width three inches, fill a measuring cup to three-fourths cup mark.
B-7
Make estimates for perimeter, area, and volumd using links, tiles, cubes, and other models.
Estimator- This online activity has the student estimate lenght, quantity, or area. They can control how close they need to be to the true answer, how difficult the problem is, and if a grid is given to help with the estimate.
Shape Explorer- In this online activity students are shown shapes on a grid and asked to calculate areas and perimeters of the shapes.
Area and Perimeter- Click on either area or perimeter to learn more about each one. Choose from three levels for lots of examples to practice.
