These task cards can be use when introducing the basic concept of converting units within the metric system. Metric length, volume, and mass conversions are included. There are 40 task cards in all. These cards work well as a small group or whole group activity. Print the task cards on cardstock and laminate, so you can use them again and again. I like to tape the cards on the walls around the room and have students rotate to the cards. It is great to get students up and out of their seats. The task card recording sheet is included.

This activity aligns with CCSS 5.MD.1.
