📏 Measurement Conversion Worksheets

Are you looking for a fun way for your students to practice measurement conversion? Teach Starter has created a resource that you can use with your students that focuses on converting different units of length. Sample problems include those such as:

• 56 km = _____ cm
• ______ inches = 10 yards
• 5 yards = _______ feet

This resource includes 3 different riddle worksheets for students to practice converting metric and customary units of length. On each worksheet, students must solve 12 conversion problems. To solve these problems, students are required to use multiplication and division skills. Once students have completed the problems, they must use the letters in each box to complete the answer to the riddle at the bottom of the page.

An answer key is included with your download to make grading fast and easy!  

Now Including Customary and Metric Units of Measure!

We’ve also created an alternative version of this resource that focuses on metric units including millimeters, centimeters, kilometers, and meters.

Because this resource includes an answer sheet, we recommend you print one copy of the entire file. Then, make photocopies of the blank worksheet for students to complete. 

Turn this teaching resource into a sustainable activity by printing on cardstock and slipping it into a dry-erase sleeve. Students can record their answers with a whiteboard marker, then erase and reuse them. 

Additionally, project the worksheet onto a screen and work through it as a class by having students record their answers in their notebooks.
