Unit: 3 Heather Bundick / Week 21 Monday Jan. 9th 2017 Day 1
Domain: Measurement and Data / Suggested time/duration: 60 minutes
Standard: MAFS.2.MD.1.1
Measure the length of an object to the nearest inch, foot, centimeter, or meter by selecting and using appropriate tools such as rulers, yardsticks, meter sticks, and measuring tapes. / Learning Target(s):
  • describe attributes of a standard linear measurement tool (e.g., inch ruler, centimeter ruler, yardstick, meter stick, measuring tapes) such as: equally spaced numbers, consecutive numbers (0, 1, 2, …), equally spaced markings between numbers, awareness of where the zero is located (i.e., the most appropriate place to begin measuring an object).
  • understand that length tells how long, how tall, or how wide something is.
  • select an appropriate tool to measure the length of an object provided by the teacher.

Rigor: Procedural Skill and Fluency / SMP(s): 4. Model with mathematics 5. Use appropriate tools strategically 6. Attend to precision 7. Look for and make use of structure

Explain:
  • Create a 4 door foldable for Ruler, Yardstick, Meter stick, Measuring Tape
  • Fill in each door with the title and description of each item.
(Fill this in as the teacher, then make a copy for each student per their responses. You can put 2 charts per page
Ruler / Yardstick / Meter stick / Measuring Tape
  • It has numbers 1 to 12.
  • It is shorter than the other ones.
/
  • It has numbers 1 to 36.
  • It is just a little shorter than the meter stick.
/
  • It is about as tall as me.
  • It has numbers 1 to 100.
  • The numbers are closer together.
/
  • It is floppy and not hard like the rest.

  • Have students explore with these tools for measuring by pairing up and measuring items like: Chair, Ball, Desk, Pencil, Eraser. Have students write down how much each object measures under their foldable tabs.
