- Compare and describe objects according to a single attribute
Topic
B. Measurement Tools
Indicator
- 1. Measure in non-standard units
Objectives
- Measure length of objects
- Explore the capacity of containers
- Explore the weight of objects
Note: Highlighted assessment limits will be tested in the no calculator section of MSA. In the assessment limit, (0-10) or (-10 to 10) means all numbers in the problem or the answer will fall within the range of 0 to 10 (including endpoints) or -10 to 10 (including endpoints), respectively. All content standards are tested in MSA but not all objectives. Objectives that have an assessment limit are tested on MSA. Objectives without an assessment limit are not tested on MSA.
