Metric Measurement Lab
This is a short 20-30 minute activity that gets students out of their seats and moving around the room. Students must first estimate metric measurements of various things around the room, then get up and measure them. They must be able to use a meter stick with the meter, centimeter, and millimeter units as well as a scale and graduated cylinder for mass and volume. This works well if students work in pairs.

Teaching style
I like to use combinations of reading, hands-on activities, practice worksheets, projects, lecture/notes, video clips and reports. I use my lab space several times a week and take my classes out of the classroom a lot to use labs, the outdoors around school and field trips off school property.
