Unit 10: Conversion of Measurement and Unit 11: Data Analysis- When should we test? Changed to April 16th but is a CPC date.
Unit 10: Conversion of Measurements
- Readiness Standard- 4.8C Solve problems that deal with measurements of length, intervals of time, liquid volumes, mass and money using the 4 operations.
- Supporting 4.8A Identify relative sizes of measurement units within the customary and metric systems
- Supprting 4.8B Convert with the same system when given equivalent measures represented in a table.
- Students must develop BENCHMARKS and mental images
- Teach the language- "kilo" means a thousand, etc.
- Students need to explore the patterns and relationships in the conversion tables.
- Students need to create the tables as well. Use a two-column chart.
- Sentence Stem "If ________ is ________, then ______ is ________ because ____________"
- "If one foot is 12 inches, then 3 feet is 36 inches because there are 3 groups of 12."
- Multi-step word problems with perimeter, elapsed time, filling/dispensing of containers, comparison of weight and comparison of money.
- May include addition and subtraction with fractions and decimals and 4 by 1 multiplication and division.
- What are some good elapsed time questions to ask during EDC?
- Remember to go over the math chart often
- 12.1 Length- Benchmark of Rees to Kroger is about a mile or a kilometer. A baseball bat is about a meter or yard or you can use from the doorknob on a door. Demonstrate when converting from larger to smaller you put your arms out and then cross over chest to make a multiplication sign and vice versa for division.
- 12.2 Mass, Weight and Volume- piece of bread is about an ounce, loaf is a pound and bread truck is about a ton. The House of "G" for liquid measurement.
- 12.3 Time- Use number bonds and number lines for elapsed time. I added another day than what was suggested. Use questions from the released STAAR test from the past 2 years and problems in Motivational Math.
- Benchmarks, grid paper and math reference charts are the key!
Unit 11: Data Analysis-
- (R) Represent data on a frequency table, dot plot(line plot), or stem-and-leaf plot with whole numbers AND FRACTIONS
- (S) solve one and two step problems using data in whole number, fraction and decimal form in a frequency table, dot plot (line plot) or stem-and-leaf plot.
