Measuring and understanding when to use which unit is most certainly going to be on standardized testing in younger grade levels. Even 4th and 5th grade and into middle school they dabble with capacity and other complicated units, especially metric. Though you might get some resistance from kids who hate having to learn more than just inches and centimeters, this is an amazing life skill. Think how often a day we use gallons, miles, degrees, cups, and a dozen other common measures. There is hardly a person alive who doesn’t need this.

Graphing awakes deep fears within our souls, much like that Lovecraftian branch of math known as algebra. I tell you though, it’s not to be feared, but embraced. Hug your bar and line graphs! Learn to love them, because most every standardized test in math or science for the rest of your life will include graphs. Social studies loves to throw in graphs too, just to remind everyone that it’s a subject worth knowing, too. So get to it, learn to label each axis, properly numerate your axis, too, and then draw your major and minor grid lines. And remember… you can tell the kids about Excel and spreadsheets when they’re in college.

Geometry is either the easiest thing to understand or the hardest, depending on how visual-spatial you are. For some of us, we’d rather get the plague than learn all the fancy names and formulas for these shapes and figures. Thankfully, there is a free resource out there to help your kids out at home or your students in the classroom.
