Students select and use appropriate tools to measure attributes of objects by using both customary and metric measurements, including: inches, feet, yards, millimeters, centimeters, meters, kilometers, ounces, pounds, grams, kilograms, cups, pints, quarts, gallons, milliliters, liters, seconds, minutes, and hours. They convert within a single system of measurement, and they apply what they know about measurement to solve two-step real-world problems involving distances and intervals of time by using any combination of the four operations.
