Standard(s) Taught

MATH:  MA.4. M.1.1     MA.4. M.1.2     MA.4. M.2.1

  • Select and use appropriate tools to measure attributes of objects.
  • Convert within a single system of measurement using the units: yards, feet, inches; kilometers, meters, centimeters, millimeters; pounds, ounces; kilograms, grams; gallons, quarts, pints, cups; liter, milliliter; hours, minutes, seconds.
  • Solve two-step real world problems involving distances and intervals of time using any combination of the four operations.

SCIENCE:  SC.4. E.6.3

  • Recognize that humans need resources found on Earth, and that these resources are either renewable or nonrenewable.
Learning Targets and Learning Criteria

The student will:

  • Write lengths using equivalent metric measures.
  • Compare sizes of metric units of length.
  • Write metric lengths using smaller and larger metric units.
  • Make tables of equivalent metric lengths.
  • Write masses and capacities using equivalent metric measures.
  • Compare sizes of metric units of mass and capacity.
  • Write metric masses and capacities using smaller metric units.
  • Make tables of equivalent metric measures.
  • Write lengths using equivalent customary measures.
  • Compare sizes of customary units of length.
  • Write customary lengths using smaller and larger customary units.
  • Make tables of equivalent customary lengths.
  • Define resources as anything from the environment that meets our needs and wants.
  • Provide examples of renewable resources (e.g., water, wind, solar, trees).
  • Provide examples of nonrenewable resources (rocks, minerals, soil, and fossil fuels such as coal, oil, natural gas).
  • Identify renewable and nonrenewable resources found on Earth that humans need and how they are used.
  • Distinguish between renewable and nonrenewable resources found on Earth.
  • Explain that nonrenewable resources exist in a fixed quantity on Earth and may be used up.
