A conversion that matches no suspect sends the student back to the page, so this measurement math is self-checking without any marking from you. Print and go with full answer keys: math activities for the measurement unit, then math centers, early finishers, homework, morning work, test prep and sub plans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUnit conversion is usually one lesson and a page of practice, and five CSI Mini Mystery Detective math cases stretch it into a week of measurement work a class will actually finish. Students convert, match the answer to a name and cross it off, which suits partners as well as a whole class, and the answer keys mean nothing needs marking twice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome problems go from a bigger unit to a smaller one, like 7 yards to feet, and others go back the other way, like 96 inches to feet. Students find their answer in the clue lists and cross that clue off. The stories cover an art heist, a stolen soccer ball and a mad scientist's lab.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Cases\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe Art Gallery Theft\u003c\/strong\u003e - a painting taken from the gallery\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChampionship Soccer Ball\u003c\/strong\u003e - the match ball goes missing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRare Book Disappearance\u003c\/strong\u003e - a rare book gone from the library\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExperimental Lab\u003c\/strong\u003e - an experiment sabotaged\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe Bank Vault\u003c\/strong\u003e - a robbery at the bank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's Inside\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFive measurement cases\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInches, feet and yards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConversions both ways\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAn answer key for each case\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eA teacher instruction page\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Is a CSI Mini Mystery Detective?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's one page per case.
