math

measurement

LEARNING GOALS:
Time:
  • I can read and write the time on analog and digital clocks.
  • I can understand the conversions between different amounts of time: seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years.
Length:
  • I can estimate lengths reasonably using the correct unit of measurement: centimeter, meter, kilometer.
  • I can understand the conversions between different units of length: cm, m, km.
Mass:
  • I can estimate mass reasonably using the correct unit of measurement: grams, kilograms.
  • I can understand the conversions between different units of mass/weight: g, kg.
Volume:
  • I can estimate volume reasonably using the correct unit of measurement: milliliters, liters.
  • I can understand the concersions between different units of capacity/volume: mL, L.
WAYS TO SUPPORT AT HOME:
  • When your child asks what time it is, ask them to determine it with different types of clocks.
  • Practice counting by 5s up to at least 60 so that students can practice understanding how to count in 5 minute increments on an analog clock. 
  • Estimate how long, heavy, and how much space is taken up, then measure it (length, mass, capacity/volume).
  • Notice road signs that say how many kilometers until the next place, then have your child pay attention to how long it takes to get that far. 
  • Notice the weight and volume of food and drinks (read the labels).
  • Practice doing conversions between different measurements (ie. 2000 grams in 2 kg).
  • Cook together, paying attention to how many mLs are in each measurement tool (ie. 15mL in a tablespoon).​
