3rd grade measurement laboratories for Gifted and Talented
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!
