CCSS Math Standard: 4.MD.1

Solve problems involving measurement and conversion of measurements from a larger unit to a smaller unit. Know relative sizes of measurement units within one system of units including km, m, cm; kg, g; lb, oz.; l, ml; hr, min, sec. Within a single system of measurement, express measurements in a larger unit in terms of a smaller unit. Record measurement equivalents in a two-column table. For example: Know that 1 ft is 12 times as long as 1 in. Express the length of a 4 ft snake as 48 in. Generate a conversion table for feet and inches listing the number pairs (1, 12), (2, 24), (3, 36), ….

How many pounds of pasta could you cook using the water in an olympic-sized pool?

How many 2 liter bottles could you fill up using the water in an olympic-sized pool?

What if I told you that an elephant weighed a back-breaking 176,000? Could you figure out the unit I'm using? But… how many corgis would that be?

What if I told you a movie was a whopping 0.017 long? Could you figure out the unit I'm using? This lesson packs in strange measurements of time as well as tiny decimals.

So, if I told you a bathtub holds 640 of water, which unit would make the most sense?

What if I told you that I'm 341,640 old? Could you figure out what unit I'm using? Hint: it's not years!
