5.2 Unit 7 Volume and Measurement
- recognize volume as an attribute of three-dimensional space.
- understand that volume can be measured by finding the total number of same
size units of volume required to fill the space without gaps or overlaps.
- understand that a 1-unit by 1-unit by 1-unit cube is the standard unit for
measuring volume.
- select appropriate units, strategies, and tools for solving problems that
involve estimating and measuring volume.
- decompose three-dimensional shapes and find volumes of right rectangular
prisms by viewing them as decomposed into layers of arrays of cubes.
- measure necessary attributes of shapes in order to determine volumes to
solve real world and mathematical problems.
- communicate precisely by engaging in discussion about their reasoning using
appropriate mathematical language.
