Measurement        
           
5-7 Benchmark A        
Select appropriate units to measure angles, circumference, surface area, mass and volume, using      
  a.  U.S. customary units; e.g., degrees, square feet, pounds, and other units as appropriate        
  b.  Metric units; e.g., square meters, kilograms and other units as appropriate.        
           
    STEMS MC # SA # ER #
           
  Grade 5 Indicator 1 - Identify and select appropriate units to measure angles; i.e., degrees.        
           
  Grade 7 Indicator 1 - Select appropriate units for measuring derived measurements; e.g., miles per hour, revolutions per minute.  *Which is the appropriate rate of change to describe the situation. 1    
           
5-7 Benchmark B        
Convert units of length, area, volume, mass and time within the same measurement system.       
           
    STEMS MC # SA # ER #
  Grade 4 Indicator 5 - Make simple unit conversions within a measurement system; e.g., inches to feet, kilograms to grams, quarts to gallons.        
           
  Grade 5 Indicator 5 - Make conversions within the same measurement system while performing computations.         
           
  Grade 7 Indicator 2 - Convert units of area and volume within the same measurement system using proportional reasoning and a reference table when appropriate; e.g., square feet to square yards, cubic meters to cubic centimeters. *How many tiles of given inches will it take to cover a floor with given dimensions. 1    
           
5-7 Benchmark C        
Identify appropriate tools and apply appropriate techniques for measuring angles, perimeter or circumference and area of triangles, quadrilaterals, circles, and composite shapes, and surface area and volume of prisms and cylinders.      
           
    STEMS MC # SA # ER #
           
  Grade 5 Indicator 6 - Use strategies to develop formulas for determining perimeter and area of triangles, rectangles and parallelograms, and volume of rectangular prisms.        
           
  Grade 5 Indicator 7 - Use benchmark angles (e.g., 45°, 90°, 120°) to estimate the measure of angles, and use a tool to measure and draw angles.         
           
  Grade 6 Indicator 2 - Use strategies to develop formulas for finding circumference and area of circles, and to determine the area of sectors; e.g., ½circle, ⅔circle, ⅓ circle, ¼ circle.        
           
  Grade 6 Indicator 3 - Estimate perimeter or circumference and area for circles, triangles and quadrilaterals, and surface area and volume for prisms and cylinders by:        
       a.  Estimating lengths using string or links, areas using tiles or grid, and volumes using cubes;        
       b.  Measuring attributes (diameter, side lengths, or heights) and using established formulas for circles, triangles, rectangles, parallelograms and rectangular prisms.        
           
  Note:  There are instances when a grade-level indicator for one standard is linked to a benchmark for a different standard.  See also for correlation Patterns, Functions and Algebra Indicator 2.        
           
  Grade 7 Indicator 6 - Use strategies to develop formulas fro finding area of trapezoids and volume of cylinders and prisms.        
           
  Grade 7 Indicator 7 - Develop strategies to find the area of composite shapes using the areas of triangles, parallelograms, circles and sectors. *Find the area of a given display (trapezoid broken into 2 triangles and a rectangle). 1    
           
  Note:  There are instances when a grade-level indicator for one standard is linked to a benchmark for a different standard.  See also for correlation Patterns, Functions and Algebra Indicator 6.
