Math Olympics
Get out of your seat and let's do some math!!! "Events" are set up using everyday materials such as cotton balls and paper plates. Students must complete the event, measure to find their score, and then calculate the average. I left the units of measurement blank so you can use this with inches or centimeters.
This lab includes 5 outdoor and 5 indoor events.
I use this as an end of the year activity and my 4th graders LOVE it!

Graduated Cylinders - Measuring the Volume of a Liquid Assessment
Having a hard time finding assessments for measuring the volume of a liquid? I always pair this assessment with real, hands-on practice in the classroom. I’ve also used it to introduce this topic with the assessment first so the students know how to read the graduated cylinders before you give them one with water in it. This product features 5 different gradients of graduated cylinders (i.e. some go up by 10s, others by 100s or 50s). There are 6 questions per page and an answer document that goe
