What educators are saying

My students have been struggling with conversions. This is the perfect tool to get them engaged while learning. They especially love being able to pick and decorate their own monster face.
My students enjoyed this activity and loved referring back to their monsters when making conversions in class. The visual this provided has given the students a reference for comparing different units rather than memorizing conversions.

Description

Are you looking for an engaging activity to teach about customary units of capacity? This Gallon Monster is a fun way for students to learn about capacity with cups, pints, quarts, and gallons. There is also a worksheet to help check for understanding after they build the Gallon Monster.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Measure and estimate liquid volumes and masses of objects using standard units of grams (g), kilograms (kg), and liters (l). Add, subtract, multiply, or divide to solve one-step word problems involving masses or volumes that are given in the same units, e.g., by using drawings (such as a beaker with a measurement scale) to represent the problem.
Know relative sizes of measurement units within one system of units including km, m, cm; kg, g; lb, oz.; l, ml; hr, min, sec. Within a single system of measurement, express measurements in a larger unit in terms of a smaller unit. Record measurement equivalents in a two-column table. For example, know that 1 ft is 12 times as long as 1 in. Express the length of a 4 ft snake as 48 in. Generate a conversion table for feet and inches listing the number pairs (1, 12), (2, 24), (3, 36),...
Convert among different-sized standard measurement units within a given measurement system (e.g., convert 5 cm to 0.05 m), and use these conversions in solving multi-step, real world problems.
