Question 1:

Find 2 pairs of similar objects and 2 objects that are found in multiples you can measure. Make sure your measures yield decimals. You can pick quantities and units of the metric system, money, or time on a stopwatch to make this happen. Your measuring will again be quite precise.  POST a PICTURE of the object being MEASURED along with your measures.

Question 2:

Last week we measured reviewed measuring of the 9 quantities with units from both the metric and SI systems, and the levels of precision that units are broken into. This week we will review making activities that can be represented by each of the structures of each of the operations that you have all been working with this term. I will provide you with measurements this week so we can all be working with the same ones. 

1/2 cup of rice and 3/4 cup of water.

  
 

6 cartons of chicken broth weigh 13 1/4 or 13 2/8 pounds.

  

 

1000 counting links in six colors, each measuring 4.3 centimeters long.

  
 

Your task is to create activity cards, that you could place on students’ desks next to these objects and measuring instruments. Each card should have a different activity on it. Sequence them so that as students work through successive activities, they have multiple experiences with the same measures. In a different color text, write the operation and the particular structure of that operation. You are responsible for all of the different structures of all four operations in this assignment. You may use all 3 scenarios to get all of those in. To make the activity flow well, you will likely have to use some structures more than once.
