In This Unit of Study…

Students will begin by giving examples of measurable attributes of an object, including length, volume, and weight. They will use this knowledge to compare two objects with a common measurable attribute to see which object has more or less of the attribute and to describe the difference in two ways. Students will also measure the length of objects up to 20 units long by laying non-standard objects end to end with no gaps or overlaps.

B.E.S.T. Benchmarks:

  • MA.K.NSO.3.2 Add two one-digit whole numbers with sums from 0 to 5 10 and subtract using related facts with procedural reliability.  
  • MA.K.M.1.1 Identify the attributes of a single object that can be measured such as length, volume, or weight. 
  • MA.K.M.1.2 Directly compare 2 objects that have an attribute in common that can be measured. Express the comparison using language to describe the difference.  
  • MA.K.M.1.3 Express the length of an object, up to 20 units long, as a whole number of lengths by laying non-standard objects end to end with no gaps or overlaps.  

Key Concepts:

  • Building fluency with related facts 0-5
  • Identify measureable attributes for weight, volume, and length
  • Compare and describe measurable attributes for weight, volume, and length
