Download or read book Measurement Unit Conversions Workbook written by Maria Miller and published by . This book was released on 2017-04-12 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The workbook Measurement Unit Conversions contains lessons and exercises suitable for grades 5-7. First, we study how the basic concept of decimal numbers can help us convert measuring units. For example, since 0.01 means one-hundredth, then 0.01 m means one-hundredth of a meter -- which is the definition of a centimeter. Then we round and estimate quantities given in various measurement units, and find the error of estimation. After that, we focus on the metric system and conversions between the metric units of measurement. I have tried to emphasize sensible and intuitive methods for converting measuring units within the metric system, instead of relying on mechanical formulas. Next, we practice conversions between units in the customary system, using the basic conversion factors and multiplication and division. Then from there we advance to conversions between customary and metric measuring units. Later, students learn how rates can be used to convert measurement units. This method is inaddition to the methods for converting measurement units that were explained earlier in the workbook. It does not mean that students should "change over" and forget what they learned earlier - it is simply a different method for doing the conversions. Some students may choose one method over another; some may be able to master all of the methods. Most will probably choose one method they prefer for doing these conversions. Next, the lesson on maps gives a different real-world context for measurement units and conversions between them, since calculating the real distances from map distances or vice versa involves both using a scale ratio and conversion of the measurement unit used. Lastly, the lesson Significant Digits deals with the concept of the accuracy of a measurement and how it limits the accuracy of the solution. Significant digits is not a standard topic for middle school, yet the concept in it is quite important, especially in science. You can consider this topic as optional or reserve it for advanced students.

Download or read book Measuring Grade 4 Workbook written by Maria Miller and published by . This book was released on 2016-01-02 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Measuring, Grade 4 Workbook includes lessons on temperature, length, weight, and volume. The focus is on conversions between the units and on word problems that involve conversions. Students may have difficulty with the conversions, and that is why they should also be studied in 5th grade. At this point, students should be able to easily convert from a bigger unit to a smaller unit (such as converting 3 feet into 36 inches, or 2 kg into 2,000 grams). While the Common Core standards do not include them for 4th grade, I have also included some problems where we convert from a smaller unit to a bigger unit (such as 4,500 ml into 4 L 500 ml or 12 feet into 4 yards), because I feel most children are capable of doing these in 4th grade. If you feel your child has difficulty with these types of conversions (from a smaller unit to a bigger unit), feel free to omit those particular exercises. They are intermixed though, and not marked in any special way. There are separate lessons for customary units and for metric units. These lessons include a chart that lists the units and the conversion factors. For metric units, those charts always include all the units, even when they are not in common usage. For example, one lesson only deals with milliliters and liters. However, the chart in that lesson also shows the two other units (deciliters and centiliters) in order to help familiarize the students with these two basic ideas of the metric system: The units always differ by a factor of ten; The units are named consistently with the same prefixes (milli-, centi-, deci-, deka-, hecto-, and kilo-). These prefixes and their meanings are not yet studied in detail in fourth grade. You may, of course, at your discretion, explain them to the student.
