measurement, using standard units (linear, mass, and capacity)
Elaboration
- linear measurements, using standard units (e.g., centimetre, metre, kilometre)
- capacity measurements, using standard units (e.g., millilitre, litre)
- Introduce concepts of perimeter, area, and circumference (the distance around); use of formula and pi to calculate not intended — the focus is on the concepts.
- area measurement, using square units (standard and non-standard)
- mass measurements, using standard units (e.g., gram, kilogram)
- estimation of measurements, using standard referents (e.g., If this cup holds 100 millilitres, about how much does this jug hold?)
