We started a new math unit today! For the next 3-4 weeks we will focus on the following expectations:
– use appropriate metric units to estimate and measure length, mass, and capacity
– solve problems that involve converting larger metric units into smaller ones, and describe the base ten relationships among metric units
– compare angles and determine their relative size using non-standard units
– use benchmark angles to estimate the size of an angle
– use a protractor to measure and construct angles up to 180°
– identify geometric properties of triangles, and construct different types of triangles when given side or angle measurements
– identify and construct congruent triangles, rectangles, and parallelograms
– draw top, front, and side views of objects, and match drawings with objects
