MEASTUREMENT
17. Apply the use of tools to measure lengths, using centimeters and inches, including recognizing the positions of whole numbers and fractions on a number line.
This outcome tests the ability to use tools to measure lengths in either the U.S. standard or metric units. Pictorial representations of measuring devices appear adjacent to the object that is to be measured when appropriate.
18. Apply the counting of collections of coins and bills (which could Include one, five, and ten dollar bills) In a buying situation.
The counting of collections of coins and bills is emphasized in this outcome. Pictorial representation of money (coins and bills) is used when appropriate.
19. Illustrate the approximate size of units of length, capacity, and weight; choose an appropriate unit to measure lengths, capacitIes, and weights in U.S. standard and metric units; and relate the number of units that measure an object to the size of the unit as well as to the size of the object.
In the estimation of measures, all answer choices are stated in the same system of measurement.
20. Determine perimeters and areas of simple straight line figures and regions without using formulas.
The focus is on the determination of perimeters and areas of simple straight line figures and regions without using formulas. Grids are generally provided to help students determine the perimeters and areas of figures or regions.
21. Use mental, paper.and-pencil, and physical strategies to determine time elapsed.
This outcome tests the ability to determine time elapsed using both digital and dial (analog) timepieces. Pictorial representations of clock faces and digital time-pieces are used when appropriate.
