Week 14 - Week 15

Essential Questions:

    • What is classification?
    • How can objects be classified?
    • How can I measure length, mass and capacity by using non-standard units?
    • How do you use weight and measurement in your life?
    • What tools and units are used to measure the attributes of an object?
    • What do you use to weigh and measure?

Content:

Students will know and understand:

    • students will know and understand:
    • how to sort and classify objects.
    • that two objects can be compared using size attributes.
    • attributes of measurements (length or weight).

Skills:

Students Will:

    • sort and classify objects and count how many in each group.
    • compare size attributes of two objects.
    • describe several measurable attributes of a single object.

Assessment

Chapter 5 Assessment: Size & Position

Formative Test: Common

Upon completion of Unit 5:

  • K.CC.A.1. Count to 100 by ones and by tens.
  • K.CC.A.3. Write numbers from 0 to 20. Represent a number of objects with a written numeral 0-20 (with 0 representing a count of no objects).
  • K.CC.B.5. Count to answer “how many?” questions about as many as 20 things arranged in a line, a rectangular array, or a circle, or as many as 10 things in a scattered configuration; given a number from 1–20, count out that many objects.
  • K.OA.A.1. Represent addition and subtraction with objects, fingers, mental images, drawings, sounds (e.g., claps), acting out situations, verbal explanations, expressions, or equations.
  • K.MD.A.1. Describe measurable attributes of objects, such as length or weight. Describe several measurable attributes of a single object.
  • K.MD.A.2. Directly compare two objects with a measurable attribute in common, to see which object has “more of”/“less of” the attribute, and describe the difference.
  • K.MD.B.3. Classify objects into given categories; count the numbers of objects in each category and sort the categories by count.
  • K.G.A.1. Describe objects in the environment using names of shapes, and describe the relative positions of these objects using terms such as above, below, beside, in front of, behind, and next to.
  • MP.4. Model with mathematics.
  • MP.5. Use appropriate tools strategically.
  • MP.7. Look for and make use of structure.
