Using Our Measuring Length Game

Measurement conversion games like this one are easy to prepare and can be used in many ways. Here is how to get started:

  1. Prior to student use, cut apart the 36 task cards. We recommend printing them on cardboard and laminating for longevity.
  2. Students will match each orange conversion card to the correct blue answer card, making 18 matches.
  3. Students should record their answers on the answer sheet and can check them with the answer key.

This matching activity is great for maths stations, guided groups, and partner work. It makes a great ‘Scoot’ around the room activity as well!
