Geometric Measurement and Problem Solving

Solve problems involving measurement and understand concepts of geometric measurement: Relate addition and subtraction to length by representing whole number sums and difference on a number line; tell and write time; use the four operations to solve word problems involving distances, intervals of time, liquid volumes, masses of objects, and money; convert like measurement units within a given measurement system; understand concepts of area and volume and relate area and volume to multiplication and addition; understand concepts of angle and measure angles; recognize perimeter as an attribute of plane figures and distinguish between linear and area measures; measure and estimate the length of an object.

Represent and Interpret Data

Organize, represent, and interpret data: Generate measurement data by measuring lengths to the nearest whole unit, or by making repeated measurements of the same object; make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit; use operations on fractions to solve problems involving information presented in line plots; draw a single-unit and scaled picture graph and a single-unit and scaled bar graph to represent a data set with several categories; solve one- and two-step “how many more” and “how many less” problems using information presented in scaled bar graphs.
