Here's what teachers like you have said:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I introduced metrics again at the beginning of the year for both my fifth and six-grade math classes. I was thrilled to find your documents after I had already introduced metrics. When it was time to have them review metrics and build upon what they had learned, I found that the papers you created greatly benefited the students and me. I appreciate all your hard work! - Kathi G.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This resource was perfect for breaking down an introduction to the metric system and was exactly what I needed to supplement the curriculum workbook, (which is not exactly designed to be independent of a teacher). I would recommend it! - Amy

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My students were able to use this product effectively to learn about metric measurement. I appreciated the different methods for teaching metric conversions. This was a great resource with lots of practice. Thank you! - Teaching Naturally

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.
Explain patterns in the number of zeros of the product when multiplying a number by powers of 10, and explain patterns in the placement of the decimal point when a decimal is multiplied or divided by a power of 10. Use whole-number exponents to denote powers of 10.
Write and evaluate numerical expressions involving whole-number exponents.
