M6.A Numbers and Operations
M6.B Measurement
  • M6.B.1 Demonstrate an understanding of measurable attributes of objects and figures, and the units, systems and processes of measurement.
  • M6.B.1.1 Compare and/or determine elapsed time.
  • M6.B.1.1.1 Determine and/or compare elapsed time to the minute (time may cross AM to PM or more than one day).
  • M6.B.2 Apply appropriate techniques, tools and formulas to determine measurements.
  • M6.B.2.1 Choose or use appropriate tools and/or units to determine measurements within the same system.
  • M6.B.2.1.1 Use or read a ruler to measure to the nearest 1/16 inch or millimeter.
  • M6.B.2.1.2 Choose the more precise measurement of a given object (e.g., smaller measurements are more precise).
  • M6.B.2.1.3 Measure angles using a protractor up to 180° - protractor must be drawn - one side of the angle to be measured should line up with the straight edge of the protractor.
  • M6.B.2.2 Solve problems involving length, perimeter, area and/or volume of geometric figures.
