From the CCSS: Grade 3 3.OA.1: Interpret products of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 5 × 7 as the total number of objects in 5 groups of 7 objects each. For example, describe a context in which a total number of objects can be expressed as 5 × 7. Soucre: CCSS Grade 3. See: Learning Trajectories in Mathematics: A Foundation for Standards, Curriculum, Assessment, and Instruction. Daro, et al., 2011. pp.48-49
4.OA.1, 4.OA.2 From the CCSS: Grade 4 Interpret a multiplication equation as a comparison, e.g., interpret 35 = 5 × 7 as a statement that 35 is 5 times as many as 7 and 7 times as many as 5. Represent verbal statements of multiplicative comparisons as multiplication equations. Multiply or divide to solve word problems involving multiplicative comparison, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem, distinguishing multiplicative comparison from additive comparison.

From the CCSS: Grade 5 5.NF.5a Interpret multiplication as scaling (resizing), by: Comparing the size of a product to the size of one factor on the basis of the size of the other factor, without performing the indicated multiplication. Source: CCSS Grade 5
“In Grades 6 and 7, rate, proportional relationships and linearity build upon this scalar extension of multiplication. Students who engage these concepts with the unextended version of multiplication (a groups of b things) will have prior knowledge that does not support the required mathematical coherences.” Source: Learning Trajectories in Mathematics: A Foundation for Standards, Curriculum, Assessment, and Instruction. Daro, et al., 2011. p.49

But what does he mean by “comparison”? 2222 08/13/09 08/13/09 “Technically, a measurement is a number that indicates a comparison between the attribute of an object being measured and the same attribute of a given unit of measure.” Van de Walle (2001) But what does he mean by “comparison”?

How about this? 08/13/09 Determine the attribute you want to measure 2323 08/13/09 08/13/09 How about this? Determine the attribute you want to measure Find something else with the same attribute. Use it as the measuring unit. Compare the two: multiplicatively. Measurement 23
