Customary measurement conversions just got a whole lot more engaging with these 32 Farmers' Market themed capacity and weight task cards! Farmer Wayne and Jane have headed to market with their farm goods — fruits, vegetables, jams, jellies, and milk — but packaged everything in just one size. Now customers want different amounts, and they need your students' help to make the right conversions. Students practice customary capacity and weight conversions while solving multi-step, real-world word problems that require addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
These task cards address Common Core Standard 5.MD.A.1 and make a great year-round activity no matter the season or upcoming holiday.
