MEASUREMENTS

A unit of measurement is a definite magnitude of a quantity used as a standard for measurement of the same type of quantity (refer to King Henry). All measurements are given in metric units and can range from height, width, length, weight, volume, area, temperature and so forth.

 

Standards

  • CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.3.MD.D.8 — Solve real world and mathematical problems involving perimeters of polygons, including finding the perimeter given the side lengths, finding an unknown side length, and exhibiting rectangles with the same perimeter and different areas or with the same area and different perimeters
  • CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.K.MD.A.2 — Directly compare two objects with a measurable attribute in common, to see which object has "more of"/"less of" the attribute, and describe the difference. For example, directly compare the heights of two children and describe one child as taller/shorter.
  • CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.K.MD.A.1 — Describe measurable attributes of objects, such as length or weight. Describe several measurable attributes of a single object
  • CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.3.MD.B.4 — Generate measurement data by measuring lengths using rulers marked with halves and fourths of an inch. Show the data by making a line plot, where the horizontal scale is marked off in appropriate units— whole numbers, halves, or quarter
  • CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.6.NS.B.3 — Fluently add, subtract, multiply, and divide multi-digit decimals using the standard algorithm for each operation.
  • CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.3.4 — Generate measurement data by measuring lengths using rulers marked with halves and fourths of an inch. Show the data by making a line plot, where the horizontal scale is marked off in appropriate units— whole numbers, halves, or quarter
  • CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.3.MD.C.5 — Recognize area as an attribute of plane figures and understand concepts of area measurement.
  • CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.3.MD.A.2 — Measure and estimate liquid volumes and masses of objects using standard units of grams (g), kilograms (kg), and liters (l).1 Add, subtract, multiply, or divide to solve one-step word problems involving masses or volumes that are given in the same units, e.g., by using drawings (such as a beaker with a measurement scale) to represent the problem
