Presentation transcript:

Measurement Proficiency Measure length to the nearest centimeter, mass to the nearest gram, volume to the nearest milliliter, temperature to the nearest degree Celsius, and time to the nearest second. Students must be able to:

Length INSTRUMENT: Metric Ruler Meter Stick UNIT: Meter (m) Centimeter (cm) Millimeter (mm) How long is the line? How tall is the tree? How far did they run? **How thick is a dime?

INSTRUMENT: Balance UNIT: Gram (g) Kilogram (kg) Milligram (mg) Mass How big is the elephant? Mass the rock. What is the mass of the book bag? **What is the mass of a paper clip?

Regular Volume INSTRUMENT: Metric Ruler Meter Stick UNIT: cm 3 mL Volume = length x width x height How big is the box? Will your carry-on suitcase fit under the seat of the airplane? **Do the math. What is the volume of this cube?

Irregular Volume INSTRUMENT: Graduated Cylinder Overflow Can UNIT: mL cm 3 Measure the volume of the rock. How much space does the plane take up in the hangar? BIG SECRET: 1 cm 3 = 1 mL The units are interchangeable!

Temperature INSTRUMENT: Thermometer UNIT: Degrees Celsius ( o C) How hot is it outside? How hot is it in this room? **Why does the liquid rise in the tube?

Time INSTRUMENT: Clock Wrist Watch Timer UNIT: Hour (hr) Minute (min) Second (sec) How long did it take for the ice to melt? How long is one revolution of the Earth around the Sun? **Can anyone run the mile faster than 3 min. in the world today?

Liquid Volume INSTRUMENT: Graduated cylinder UNIT: Milliliter (mL) Liter (L) How much soda is in the glass? How much milk does the recipe say goes in the pancake batter? **How many liters is the BIG Coke bottle?

EXIT SLIP 1.What instrument is used to measure mass? 2.What instrument is used to measure temperature? 3.How do you measure the volume of a box?
