Follows students' natural progression from measuring with informal or non-standard units to using standard units to measure such attributes as length, weight, angle and temperature. Activities extend students' learning to the measurement of two-and three-dimensional objects. Students work in a variety of lively real-world contexts, gathering measurement benchmarks in a classroom scavenger hunt and investigating the area of a rectangle while acting as owners of a sticker factory, for example.

Release Date: 2003
This book introduces young children to the basic ideas of comparing and ordering lengths, weights, time and capacities. Engaging hands-on activities develop these ideas, along with the concept of units of measure and the use of measurement tools. The investigations follow children's natural progression from using many copies of a unit to iterating the unit to using a tool that iterates the unit. The supplemental CD-ROM features interactive electronic activities, master copies of activity pages for students and additional readings for teachers.
Navigating Through Number and Operations in Grades 3-5
In grades 3-5, students extend their understanding of place value, larger whole numbers, fractions and decimals. They develop an understanding of multiplication and division, mastering and applying basic facts. Concrete materials can help students represent and reinforce these important concepts. Activities in this book invite students to use fraction circles to compare fractions and dot arrays to explore multiplication and the distributive property. The authors present many other hands-on approaches, including the use of work mats, open number lines, multiplication ""chains"" and games with spinners. Numbers and the operations that we perform with them are the starting points for all mathematics. Accordingly, Principles and Standards for School Mathematics makes the Number and Operations Standard first among the five Content Standards and gives it centrality across the mathematics curriculum from prekindergarten through grade 12. The Navigations Series translates Principles and Standards for School Mathematics into action. Each book includes practical, teacher-tested activities and a supplemental CD-ROM that features applets for students' use and resources for teachers' professional development.
