 * **Transfer:**
 * Standards for Mathematical Practices**
 * 1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.**
 * 5. Use appropriate tools strategically.**
 * 6. Attend to precision.**
 * 7. Look for and make use of structure.**
 * **Established Goals:**
 * 3.MD.2** Measure and estimate liquid volumes and masses of objects using standard units of grams 9g0, kilograms (kg0, and liters (l0. Add, subtract, multiply, or divide to solve one-step problems involving masses or volumes that are given in the same units, e.g., by using drawings (such as a beaker with measurement scale) to represent the problem.


 * Student I Can Statements:**
 * I can estimate liquid volumes and masses of objects using standard units of measure (grams, kilograms, and liters)
 * I can measure liquid volumes and masses of objects using standard units of measure (grams, kilograms, and liters)
 * I can use a drawing to represent one-step word problems involving masses or volumes.
 * I can solve one-step word problems involving masses or volumes using addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.


 * Prerequisite Standards:**
 * 2.MD.1** Measure the length of an object by selecting and using appropriate tools such as rulers, yardsticks, meter sticks, and measuring tapes.


 * 2.MD.2** Measure the length of an object twice, using length units of different lengths for the two measurements; describe how the two measurements relate to the size of the unit chosen.


 * 2.MD.3** Estimate lengths using units of inches, feet, centimeters, and meters.


 * 2.MD.4** Measure to determine how much longer one object is than another, expressing the length difference in terms of a standard length unit.


 * 3.OA.3** Use multiplication and division within 100 to solve word problems in situations involving equal groups, arrays, and measurement problems. ||
 * **Big Ideas:**

Some attributes of objects are measurable and can be quantified using unit amounts.
 * Measurement**

Mathematics content and practices can be applied to solve problems. || **Essential Questions:**
 * Practices, Processes, and Proficiencies**
 * Why does "what" we measure influence "how" we measure?
 * Why display data in different ways?
 * What are the customary units for measuring capacity and weight?
 * What are the metric units for measuring capacity and mass? ||
 * **Students will know...**
 * Capacity is a measure of the amount of liquid a container can hold.
 * Mass is a measure of the quantity of matter in an object.
 * The weight of an object is a measure of how heavy an object is.
 * Information in a problem can often be shown using a picture or diagram and used to understand and solve the problem. Some problems can be solved by writing and completing a number sentence or equation.
