Equivalency
Discuss how many parts make a whole for each type of measurement.
Use the cards to express the following equations.
1 mile = 1,760 yards
1 mile = 5,280 feet
1 mile = 63,360 inches
1 yard = 3 feet
1 kilometer = 1,000 meters
1 meter = 10 decimeters
1 kilometer = 10,000 decimeters
1 kilometer = 100,000 centimeters
1 kilometer = 1,000,000 millimeters
1 meter = 100 centimeters
1 meter = 1,000 millimeters
1 decimeter = 10 centimeters
1 decimeter = 100 millimeters
1 centimeter = 10 millimeters
1 yard = 36 inches
1 ton = 2,000 pounds
1 ton = 32,000 ounces
1 pound = 16 ounces
1 kilogram = 1,000 grams
1 gram = 10 decigrams
1 kilogram = 10,000 decigrams
1 kilogram = 100,000 centigrams
1 kilogram = 1,000,000 milligrams
1 gram = 100 centigrams
1 gram = 1000 milligrams
1 decigram = 10 centigrams
1 decigram = 100 milligrams
1 centigram = 10 milligrams
1 gallon = 4 quarts
1 gallon = 8 pints
1 gallon = 16 cups
1 quart = 2 pints
1 quart = 4 cups
1 pint = 2 cups
1 kiloliter = 1,000 liters
1 liter = 10 deciliters
1 kiloliter = 10,000 deciliters
1 kiloliter = 100,000 centiliters
1 kiloliter = 1,000,000 milliliters
1 liter = 100 centiliters
1 liter = 1000 milliliters
1 deciliter = 10 centiliters
1 deciliter = 100 milliliters
1 centiliter = 10 milliliters
Chart set-up
Organize the chart by separating the cards and placing them in the
appropriate pockets. This will help students focus on the pertinent
measurement. Store the meter and yard cards in the large pocket on the
back of the chart. Store the plastic rulers in the rulers pocket and the
picture cards in the blank horizontal pocket on the front of the chart.
Note: For multiple uses of each card and to help prevent erasure
of written notes, always use a wet-erase marker. To ensure that your
marker doesn’t leave a permanent mark, test it on the corner of a
card. Use a damp cloth to remove marks. Cards will warp if saturated
with water.
