Unpacked Content

Knowledge

Students know:

Personal benchmarks for metric standard units of measure, mass (gram & kilogram) and liquid volume (liter), and the use of related tools (such as balance, spring scales, graduated cylinders, beakers, measuring cups) for measurement to those units.
Characteristics of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division contexts that involve measurements.
How to represent quantities and operations physically, pictorially, or symbolically.
