Included Skills: Measurement, Comparison
Demonstrate an understanding of measurement as a process of comparing by: • identifying attributes that can be compared. • ordering objects. • making statements of comparison. • filling, covering or matching. • Identify common attributes, such as length (height), mass (weight), volume (capacity) and area, that could be used to compare two given objects. • Order a set of objects by length (height), mass (weight), volume (capacity) or area, and explain their ordering. • Compare two given objects, and identify the attributes used to compare. • Determine which of two or more given objects is longest/shortest by matching, and explain the reasoning. • Determine which of two or more given objects is heaviest/lightest by comparing, and explain the reasoning. • Determine which of two or more given objects holds the most/least by filling, and explain the reasoning. • Determine which of two or more given objects has the greatest/least area by covering, and explain the reasoning.
