Liquid Units of Measurement and Conversion Worksheets and Activities

If you are teaching about liquid units of measurement and conversion, don’t pass up this opportunity. Your grade 4 learners will enjoy practicing and/or reviewing their skills with this concept because not only does it include visuals with the worksheets, but four delicious winter drink recipes are also provided. They are a great way to celebrate the successful completion of a math unit or build solid connections between learning and real-world applications. Within the pages of this product, you will find several types of learning activities including worksheets, task cards, and a tasty treat to top it all off. As they work their way through each page, learners will not only strengthen their skills in liquid volume and conversion, but they’ll do so with word problems, fill-in the blank, and greater than/less than comparison. Two visual aides are included. The first is a set of cards that can be cut out and used to show relationships such as the number of quarts in one gallon. The second in a chart your learners will color to give a visual representation of the size conversions starting with cups and ending with gallons. On the final worksheet, your learners will solve word problems that relate directly to the four Winter drink recipes. Not only does this activity help them learn about measurement conversions, but also gives them the added bonus of practice reading recipes. The four tasty treats great for a cold Winter’s Day are apple cider, smoothie, hot chocolate, and coquito (a kid-friendly version). Understanding the concept of conversion can be a daunting task for some learners. With this product your 4th graders will complete the unit with a stronger understanding of liquid volume measurement and conversion. The worksheets can be used as independent seat work, whole group or small group learning, or homework assignments. If your learners are in need of an activity that gets them up and moving, the task cards will do just that. Post them around any indoor or outdoor educational environment and let your learners loose to solve each of the 12 given tasks. Finally, choose one of the delicious recipes to make as a group and watch connections being made as your learners see first-hand how measurements and conversions are used in their own lives. Or send the recipes home and instruct learners to write a review of one after they’ve made it with an older sibling or adult.
