Select the appropriate tool for the measurement of liquid volume and mass.
Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Identify that liquid volume and mass can be measured.
  • Recognize which tools are used for measurement. such as measuring cup for liquid volume, scale for grams, etc.
Representation:
  • Understand vocabulary for: grams (g), kilograms (kg), and liters (l).
  • Match tools with units of measurement (i.e., a measuring cup/beaker measures volume and a scale measures weight).
General Information
Number: MAFS.3.MD.1.AP.2a
Category: Access Points
Date Adopted or Revised: 06/14
Cluster: Solve problems involving measurement and estimation of intervals of time, liquid volumes, and masses of objects. (Major Cluster)

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
