Description

Students will be engaged with this Measuring Capacity and Liquid Volume Google Slides. First, students drag and drop measurements of capacity to label beakers and cylinders. The fun continues as students adjust the level of liquid in containers to match capacity labels.

Benefits and Features of this Digital Measuring Capacity resource:

  • Every slide is bright and colorful to capture your students' attention.
  • Interactive movable pieces keep students engaged.
  • Video Instructions embedded into the Google Slides make your job easier.

Video instructions for students are embedded in the activity:

  1. Have students who forget instructions as soon as it is time for them to begin working? Students can watch the video instructions before completing the activity at a math station, for seatwork or homework.
  2. Have students who are absent? The video instructions save you time so that you don't have to explain how to complete the activity to students.
  3. Have a sub? They can watch the video instructions so that they can offer support while students complete the digital activity.

Liquid Volume and Capacity Topics Include:

  • Reading the level of liquid volume in containers
  • Thinking about the capacity markings on containers as Vertical Number Lines and finding the value of intervals between those lines
  • Solving Capacity Word Problems involving adding and subtracting the liquid volume in beakers and other containers

Math TEKS

3.7E : Determine liquid volume (capacity) or weight using appropriate units and tools.

Common Core

3.MD.2 : Measure and estimate liquid volumes and masses of objects using standard units of grams (g), kilograms (kg), and liters (l). Add, subtract, multiply, or divide to solve one-step word problems involving masses or volumes that are given in the same units, e.g., by using drawings (such as a beaker with a measurement scale) to represent the problem.

Meet the Seller

In addition to my work in education, I also run a STEM-based Christmas Light Show business. When I'm not creating new math resources or working with teachers, I'm designing and fabricating light shows sequenced to music with my husband and our team. That business came about after our family was featured on ABC's The Great Christmas Light Fight. My son attends the University of Texas, Austin and I'm currently soaking up every last minute with my daughter, a high school senior.
