-Estimate
and then use a
ruler to make linear measurements to the nearest centimeter and inch,
including
measuring the distance around a polygon in order to
determine
perimeter.
-Given
grid paper, estimate
and then count the number of square units needed to cover a given
surface in
order to determine area.
-Estimate
and then count the
number of cubes in a rectangular box in order to determine volume.
-Estimate and then
determine
weight/mass of objects in pounds and/or kilograms, using a scale.
-Using
actual measuring
devices to compare metric and U.S. Customary units for measuring liquid
volume,
using the concepts of more, less and equivalent.
-Read
the temperature on a
Celsius and/or Fahrenheit thermometer to the nearest 10 degrees.
-Identify,
describe and sort
three-dimensional concrete figures, including a cube, prism, square
pyramid,
sphere, cylinder, and cone.
-Identify
and create figures,
symmetric along a line, using various concrete materials.
-Compare
and contrast plane
and solid geometric shapes (circle/sphere, square/cube, and
rectangle/rectangular solid).
-Record
data from
experiments, using spinners and colored tiles/cubes, and use data to
predict
which of 2 events is more likely to occur if the experiment is repeated.
