• Examples
• How we measure size (Length, Area, Volume)

USING NUMBER LINES & GRAPHING PAPER FOR MEASUREMENT

• Units (when we don't know measurement)
• Square Units
• Why it's important to label units!!
• Representing real-world objects on graphing paper (intro)

USE:

We used this in the beginning of our area unit with sixth graders, to fill in some gaps such as what dimensions actually mean and how to represent real-world objects on graphing paper.
