= Topic Twelve Measurement = Pacing (Duration of Unit): 1. Makes sense of problems and persevere in solving them. 3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. 4. Model with mathematics. 5. Use appropriate tools strategically. 6. Attend to precision. 8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. ||

 * __**Established Goals:**__


 * ** K.MD.1 ** Describe measurable attributes of objects, such as length or weight. Describe several measurable attributes of a single object.
 * **K.MD.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.

__**Student "I Can" Statements:**__


 * I can tell how an object can be measured. (length, weight)
 * I can compare how two objects are similar or different. (more of, less of, taller, shorter)

__**Prerequisite Standards:**__ N/A ||
 * __**Big Ideas:**__

Numbers, expressions, measures, and objects can be compared and related to other numbers, expressions, measures, and objects in different ways.
 * Comparison and Relationships**

Mathematics content and practices can be applied to solve problems. || __**Essential Questions:**__

 * How can objects be compared and ordered by length, height, and weight? ||
 * __**Students will know...**__


 * Objects have measurable attributes that can be recognized and described.
 * Objects can be compared and ordered by length and weight.
 * Objects can be compared by length and weight.
 * Some problems can be solved by making a reasoned first try for what the answer might be and then, through additional reasoning, arrive at the correct answer.
 * Comparing by height is similar to comparing by length.
 * Objects can be compared and ordered by length, capacity, and weight.
