  • 03.NF.03.f Record the results of comparisons with the symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions by using a visual fraction model.

MAT-03.MD Domain:

[MD] Measurement and Data

• MAT-03.MD.01 Tell and Write time to the nearest minute and measure time intervals in minutes. solve elapsed time word problems on the hour and the half hour, using a variety of strategies.
• MAT-03.MD.02 Measure and estimate liquid volumes and masses of objects using standard units of grams (g), kilograms (kg), and liters (l). Add, subtract, multiply, or divide to solve one-step word problems involving masses or volumes that are given in the same units.
• MAT-03.MD.03 Draw scaled picture graphs and scaled bar graphs to represent data sets with several categories. Solve one- and two-step how many more and how many less problems using information presented in scaled bar graphs.
• MAT-03.MD.04 Generate measurement data by measuring lengths using rulers marked with halves and fourths of an inch. Show the data by making a line plot, where the horizontal scale is marked in appropriate unitsùwhole numbers, halves, or quarters.
• MAT-03.MD.05 Recognize area as an attribute of plane figures and understand concepts of area measurement.
  • MAT-03.MD.05.a A square with a side length 1 unit, called a unit square, is said to have one square unit of area, and can be used to measure area.
  • MAT-03.MD.05.b A plane figure, which can be covered without gaps or overlaps by n unit squares, is said to have an area of n square units.
• MAT-03.MD.06 Measure areas by counting unit squares (square cm, square m, square in, square ft, and improvised units).
• MAT-03.MD.07 Relate area to the operations of multiplication and addition.
  • MAT-03.MD.07.a Find the area of a rectangle with whole-number side lengths by tiling it, and show that the area is the same as would be found by multiplying the side lengths.
