2.MDR.5Length Measurement and Data

Expectations

• 2.MDR.5.1

  Construct simple measuring instruments using unit models. Compare unit models to rulers.

• 2.MDR.5.2

  Estimate and measure the length of an object or distance to the nearest whole unit using appropriate units and standard measuring tools.

• 2.MDR.5.3

  Measure to determine how much longer one object is than another and express the length difference in terms of a standard-length unit.

• 2.MDR.5.4

  Ask questions and answer them based on gathered information, observations, and appropriate graphical displays to solve problems relevant to everyday life.

• 2.MDR.5.5

  Represent whole-number sums and differences within a standard unit of measurement on a number line diagram.
