Get your students up and moving as they measure objects using non-standard and standard measurements. Students will measure the length, height, weight, and capacity of common things found in the classroom.

-measure objects found in the classroom, record object, unit of measurement, estimation, and actual count

When giving this to students, they'll come up with different correct answers than other peers. There is no answer key for this reason. Most families should have (or be able to buy for cheap) the measuring tools.

To ensure students don't just throw down random answers, you may consider one of the following:

• having them bring in the measurement tools (and measured items) as a show-and-tell the next day
• having them take pictures and uploading them somewhere (unless they have their own devices to display them)
• honor system - because this should be more about fun than pressure, and if they decide to be deceitful, they'll simply miss out on the activity and probably realize their mistake when students share the next day
• Your own method - I've given you a blank instructions sheet to fill in your own

Use real acorns in this nonstandard weights and measurements task card activity set. This Kindergarten measurement center allows students to compare weight and measure lengths and heights by using nonstandard units.

Task Cards Included

• Which one weighs less? (12 cards)
• Which one weighs more? (12 cards)
• How many acorns equals the objects? (12 cards)
• How many acorns tall is the object? (6 cards)
• How many acorns long is the object? (6 cards)

These task cards use a variety of easy to find materials to compare the weights of acorns with common classroom supplies. The same materials are also used in the measuring length.

Here is the list of materials needed to do all of the task cards.

The following materials are needed to complete these task cards: acorns, balance scale, base ten blocks (or small wooden blocks), bottle of glue, building bricks, crayon, coins, counting cubes, dice, dominos, dot markers, erasers, glue stick, marbles, marker, paint brush, paper clips, pencil, and a toy car.

When to Use

• Task Box Activity
• Small Group Activity
• Math Centers

Skills Assessed

• Comparing Weights of two sets of objects
• Using nonstandard measurements to measure length
• Using nonstandard measurements to measure height
• Using nonstandard measurements to weigh objects.

The task cards, by themselves, are low prep and just need to be printed and cut apart. They can be laminated for durability if desired. By storing the cards and acorns in task boxes, teachers will have an easy to set up and clean up activity. Gathering the necessary materials may take some time, but once gathered, this becomes a fun, hands on math center to practice nonstandard measurements.
