These cards are designed to be used with students who have already been taught about converting length, but still need some practice or a review activity.

If you have not yet taught this skill, be sure to give students a lesson on what is needed first.

Along with the task cards and recording pages, an answer key is provided. You may use it for grading or for students to self check their answers.

You will also find a page with cards containing measurements. These can be laminated and placed at a center as a tool. There is also a black and white version for students to place in their notebooks – this version contains conversions for length, capacity and weight.

This set of measurement task cards has 32 cards.

Also included is an assortment of recording sheets so you can modify assignments as needed for different students. At the top of each page is a place for students to record their assigned task number cards. For example, some students might complete all of the odds while you might have other students complete the evens.

When using as a SCOOT game, use the page of boxes provided. This game is meant to get students up and moving. Place a card at each student’s seat or at various places around the room. Students pick a spot and are given a set amount of time to complete the problem. The teacher then announces “SCOOT” and children rotate in a predetermined route or direction (or randomly) and complete another task card in a different spot.

This set contains a color and black and white version of the cards. The color version comes first in the PDF, the white version will be found at the end.
