Description

Looking for an activity to make word problems with customary measurement conversions fun for your 5th grade students? This Customary Measurement Conversions Battleship Activity includes 24 challenging multi-step word problem task cards, which require students to convert customary units of measurement to solve. To motivate students to tackle these measurement word problems, students must use their answers to complete a battleship-style game board. This 5th grade customary conversions activity is perfect for end-of-unit review, math test prep, fun Fridays, and more!

As the teacher, you will place the measurement word problem task cards around the room. Students will move around and solve the customary measurement conversion problems on each card. Then, they will use their answers to determine the location of each battleship on their board.

This converting measurements activity was designed to support the 5th grade math standard:

Convert among different-sized standard measurement units within a given measurement system, and use these conversions in solving multi-step, real-world problems.

Included with this Customary Measurement Conversions Battleship Cards set:

  • Instructions for use
  • 24 multi-step word problem cards
  • "Battleship Board" worksheet
  • Answer sheet
  • Answer keys

In order to save ink, the graphics on these cards are black and white. The cards look best when printed on colored paper, as shown on the cover image.

These cards can also be used as normal task cards without the battleship board. An additional set of task cards without the battleship coordinates (same word problems) is included. Battleship is just meant to be a fun incentive for solving the problems!
