Unit 7 Content, Strategies and Misconceptions Represent and interpret data MCC5.MD.1 Convert among different-sized standard measurement units within a given measurement system (e.g., convert 5 cm to 0.05 m), and use these conversions in solving multi-step, real world problems. MCC5. MD.2 Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8). Use operations on fractions for this grade to solve problems involving information presented in line plots. For example, given different measurements of liquid in identical beakers, find the amount of liquid each beaker would contain if the total amount in all the beakers were redistributed evenly. Geometric Measurement: understand concepts of volume and relate volume to multiplication and addition. MCC5.MD.3 Recognize volume as an attribute of solid figures and understand concepts of volume measurement. a. A cube with side length 1 unit, called a “unit cube,” is said to have “one cubic unit” of volume, and can be used to measure volume. b. A solid figure which can be packed without gaps or overlaps using n unit cubes is said to have a volume of n cubic units. MCC5.MD.4 Measure volumes by counting unit cubes, using cubic cm, cubic in, cubic ft, and improvised units. MCC5.MD.5 Relate volume to the operations of multiplication and addition and solve real world and mathematical problems involving volume. a. Find the volume of a right rectangular prism with whole- number side lengths by packing it with unit cubes, and show that the volume is the same as would be found by multiplying the edge lengths, equivalently by multiplying the height by the area of the base. Represent threefold whole-number products as volumes, e.g., to represent the associative property of multiplication. b. Apply the formulas V = l × w × h and V = b × h for rectangular prisms to find volumes of right rectangular prisms with whole-number edge lengths in the context of solving real world and mathematical problems. c. Recognize volume as additive. Find volumes of solid figures composed of two non- overlapping right rectangular prisms by adding the volumes of the non-overlapping parts, applying this technique to solve real world problems. Trudy
Critical Areas in 5th Grade Trudy – Understanding Volume is a critical area in 5th grade
Unit 7 Content, Strategies and Misconceptions Represent and interpret data MCC5.MD.1 Convert among different-sized standard measurement units within a given measurement system (e.g., convert 5 cm to 0.05 m), and use these conversions in solving multi-step, real world problems. Students will work within either the metric system OR the customary system to convert measurement units. Students will use their ability to convert measurements within a measurement system to solve real world problems. Students will use their prior knowledge of multiplying and dividing by powers of ten to convert measurements, as well as writing equivalent fractions and decimals. Students will compare the metric system to our place value system and make connections between how the two systems are similar. Emily
Unit 7 Content, Strategies and Misconceptions Represent and interpret data MCC5.MD.1 Convert among different-sized standard measurement units within a given measurement system (e.g., convert 5 cm to 0.05 m), and use these conversions in solving multi-step, real world problems. Strategies: Have students discover the relationship between liquid units of measure in a science lab with containers. Share prefixes for metric units to help deepen understanding. Allow students to use tools to collect measurement data using two different units of measure. (Science Lab for weight and mass conversions; Leap Frog activity for linear measurement conversions) Have students think of real world situations using various types of measurement. Students can think of another unit that they can convert the original measurement to and explain what operation was used to convert the measurement. Have students make generalizations about why more or less units are needed when the conversion is made. Emily
Unit 7 Content, Strategies and Misconceptions Represent and interpret data MCC5.MD.1 Convert among different-sized standard measurement units within a given measurement system (e.g., convert 5 cm to 0.05 m), and use these conversions in solving multi-step, real world problems. Misconceptions: Mass vs. weight Student confusion with fluid ounces and ounces – when to use, what the conversions are (16 ounces in a pound; 8 fluid ounces in a cup) Applying multiplication and division patterns incorrectly because students forget to look at the size of the units being converted Emily
Unit 7 Content, Strategies and Misconceptions Represent and interpret data MCC5. MD.2 Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8). Use operations on fractions for this grade to solve problems involving information presented in line plots. For example, given different measurements of liquid in identical beakers, find the amount of liquid each beaker would contain if the total amount in all the beakers were redistributed evenly. Students will make line plots to represent data using measurements that are recorded to the nearest half, quarter and eighth of any measurement unit. Students will add, subtract, multiply and divided fractions to solve problems about information given in the line plot. Students are using their ability to collect measurements or use measurements that are provided to display liquid volume, length and mass data. Emily
Unit 7 Content, Strategies and Misconceptions Represent and interpret data MCC5. MD.2 Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8). Use operations on fractions for this grade to solve problems involving information presented in line plots. For example, given different measurements of liquid in identical beakers, find the amount of liquid each beaker would contain if the total amount in all the beakers were redistributed evenly. Strategies: Collect data as a whole class and use the students or post it notes as data points on the line plot. Do activities that will yield measurement data that contain fractions like Leap Frog (Ga.DOE), measuring length of pencils, finding shoe sizes, etc. so that students make line plots with fractions to the nearest half, quarter or eighth of an inch.

Misconceptions: Knowing the differences between line graphs and line plots Helping students understand that even if a piece of data is missing from a data set that it still needs to appear on the line plot with no data points if it falls within the range of the data on the line plot Emily

Krista - CA 2, Looking ahead for perspective: not a capstone standard – 6.G.2 (fractional side lengths), 7.G.6, 8.G.9, therefore super important to build conceptual understanding Looking back for connections to build upon – 3.MD.5, 6, and 7 (next 4 slides) 4 ½ cm

Krista - Image is rectilinear Discuss investing lots of time in 5.a (packing and layering)
Unit 7 Content, Strategies and Misconceptions First nine lessons of EngageNY Module 5 focus on concepts of volume Page 39 Page 26 Krista – From Engage NY, a resource that will be shared later in this webinar Great strategy ideas include: Building understanding by briefly spending time on finding volume of “structures” before focusing heavily on volumes of right rectangular prisms Semi-abstract student representations of the layering concept and laying l to r is the same volume as layering top to bottom Another resource for us to find ways to always be incorporating problem solving and real life scenarios 1. A storage shed is a rectangular prism and has dimensions of 6 meters by 5 meters by 12 meters. If Jean were to double these dimensions, she believes she would only double the volume. Is she correct? Explain why or why not. Include a drawing in your explanation. (page 102)
Task – Differentiating Area and Volume Trudy – Good task for MD.3 – understanding what volume is, how it’s measured, how it’s different from area; could extend to how it’s different from perimeter
Task – Differentiating Area and Volume Trudy – example of how to compare & contrast
Task – How Many Ways? Trudy – good task for MD.4 – measuring volume by counting unit cubes
Task – Rolling a Rectangular Prism Trudy – explain task and part 1; explain part 2 & how these conversions would be made; explain that this is beyond the scope of expectations for this 5th grade standards, but may be a good enrichment activity for students who need a challenge
Task – Toy Box Designs Trudy – explain why 30 cu. meters is not a good measurement for this task; suggest 12 cu. ft. or 6,000 cu. in.
