Standard 2: Measurement

Resources

Benchmark

Indicator

  

A.   Select appropriate units for perimeter, weight, volume (capacity), time and temperature using:

·     Objects of uniform size

·     US customary units

·     Metric units

1.   Identify and select appropriate units for measuring as well as      read, write and apply appropriate vocabulary:

a.   length – miles, kilometers and other units of measure as appropriate.

b.   Volume (capacity) – gallons, liters

c.   Weight – ounces, pounds, grams, or kilograms;

d.   Temperature – degrees (Fahrenheit or Celsius).

2.   Read thermometers in both Fahrenheit and Celsius scales.

  

C.   Develop common referents for units of measure for length,          weight, volume (capacity) and time to make comparisons and           estimate.

1.   Establish personal or common referents to include additional           units; e.g., a gallon container of milk; a postage stamp is about       a square inch.

2.   Estimate and measure length, weight and volume (capacity),          using metric and U.S. customary units, accurate to the nearest       ½ or ¼ unit as appropriate.  

  

D.   Identify appropriate tools and apply counting techniques for    measuring side lengths, perimeter and area of squares,       rectangles, and simple irregular two-dimensional shapes, volume             of rectangular prisms and time, and temperature.

1.   Read thermometers in both Fahrenheit and Celsius scales.

2.   Use appropriate measurement tools and techniques to

      construct a figure or approximate an amount of specified

      length, weight or volume (capacity); e.g., construct a rectangle

      with length 2 ½ inches and width 3 inches, fill measuring cup

      to the ¾ cup mark.

3.   Make estimates for perimeter, area and volume using links,         tiles, cubes and other models.

  

E.   Tell time to the nearest minute.

1.   Tell time to the nearest minute and find elapsed time using a      calendar or a clock.

2.   Tell time using quarter till, quarter after, and half past using a            clock.
