Includes CD Rom. Measurement, one of the most fundamental mathematical processes, is indispensable to the study of all branches of mathematics. Measurement pervades daily activities, and measurement skills and tools are frequently applied in science, art, music, and social studies. Why do we measure? What can we measure? How do we make a measurement? These questions are the starting point for this book, which follows students’ natural progress through measurement in grades 3 – 5. Early activities help student explore measuring with informal or nonstandard units before using standard units to measure such attributes as length, weight, angle, and temperature. Later activities extend these investigations to the measurement of two- and three-dimensional objects. Student work in a variety of lively real-world contexts. |

Description |
Includes CD Rom. Measurement, one of the most fundamental mathematical processes, is indispensable to the study of all branches of mathematics. Measurement pervades daily activities, and measurement skills and tools are frequently applied in science, art, music, and social studies. Real-world investigations can move students in the middle grades from their earlier, informal understanding of measurement to the abstract, sophisticated understanding that they will need in high school. This book provides hands-on activities that build important strategies an concepts. Students learn about accuracy and estimation, and they develop formulas for the perimeter, area, and volume of two- and three-dimensional shapes. In exploring proportionality, scaling and similarity, they build a scale model of a room and make a “pi ruler” to help gauge the age of a tree. As they progress from fundamental measures, they investigate such rates as speed and density. |

Includes CD Rom. Measurement, one of the most fundamental mathematical processes, is indispensable to the study of all branches of mathematics. Measurement pervades daily activities, and measurement skills and tools are frequently applied in science, art, music, and social studies. Throughout history, the need for more sophisticated measurements has led to the discovery of more sophisticated mathematics. This book highlights this important idea in activities that help students explore an array of measurement strategies and techniques. Investigations probe ancient methods for accomplishing such tasks as measuring the speed of ships at sea and estimating the distance of the sun from the earth. Students apply simple formulas to measure complex shapes, explore iterative processes that lead to measurement formulas, and develop an original formula for measuring the size of a tree. They also discover how to use advanced technology to make measurements and mathematical models of real-world phenomena. |
