Metric Conversion Worksheets PDF
If your children have friends or relatives in another continent, they may run into an interesting difference in the way that people from Europe, Asia and the United States measure things. While your students may track their height in inches, for example, their buddies from Canada or the United Kingdom might use centimeters instead.
Countries employ different standards for their units of measurement; most of the world utilizes the metric system, while the United States is the most prominent user of the Imperial system. In the K-12 math curriculum, children will learn which units belong to each system and how to convert to metric units. Help them hone this practical skill with our metric conversion worksheets PDF.
Learning how to convert metric into imperial units and vice versa will take a fair amount of effort. Children should have a decent grasp of multiplication and division, and it helps if they know how to read exponents – specifically the powers of 10. They must also be familiar with which units from both systems correspond with each other. All of these can seem daunting to kids, but they can eventually master metric conversion with the help of a strong and consistent study habit.
Our metric conversion worksheets PDF can serve as excellent study tools for helping children apply and evaluate their progress at learning unit conversion. Each sheet maintains a simple and appealing design, with text that’s easy to read. We also use clear and detailed illustrations to help present each topic effectively.
The sheets in this category cover measurements for different types of properties.
Reading temperatures is a good way to introduce the differences between the metric and imperial systems. There are many places that still use traditional mercury thermometers and thermostats; our measurements thermometer sheets can teach kids to gauge how cold or hot it is in Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Some of the easiest ways to teach measurements and conversions lie in using rulers and tape measures to find the lengths and widths of everyday items. Consider that while the meter is the basic metric unit of length, we use different denominations – particularly centimetres and millimetres - to more easily gauge the length of small objects.
Students can get their hands full with our worksheets on converting mm to cm, or cm to feet, or feet to yards. These sheets can guide them into discovering one of the key advantages of using metric units, which is that all of its magnitudes are based on the powers of 10.
We have worksheets for measuring values from other instruments as well, such as analog and digital thermometers, and the accelerometers on a vehicle. Apart from the metric system, we’ve also included supplementary material on this page for practicing how to measure angles.
