Unpacked Content

Knowledge

Students know:

Relative sizes of units within one system of measurement.
Strategies to solve word problems involving the four operations.
Measurement units in the same system are multiplicatively related.

Skills

Students are able to:

Solve measurement word problems
Involving distance, intervals of time, liquid volume, mass, and money.
Involving measurement conversion of larger units to a smaller unit.
Involving simple fractions or decimals.
Using diagrams to represent measurement quantities and solutions.
