Common Core State Standards: CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.MD.A.1
Measure the length of an object by selecting and using appropriate tools such as rulers, yardsticks, meter sticks, and measuring tapes.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.MD.A.2
Measure the length of an object twice, using length units of different lengths for the two measurements; describe how the two measurements relate to the size of the unit chosen.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.MD.A.3
Estimate lengths using units of inches, feet, centimeters, and meters.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.MD.A.4
Measure to determine how much longer one object is than another, expressing the length difference in terms of a standard length unit.
Objective
- Students will view a 360° video and compare the lengths of different items shown in the video using different units of measurement
Recommended Teaching Strategy
Example 360° Learning Experience
Show students the recommended video and ask them to name the items they can see. Record the items they see, organizing them by height. Scroll around the video, asking them to observe all the objects they could measure. Students can then complete the recommended worksheet, using a ruler to measure the length of 3 different items found in the video in inches and centimeters. As a class, organize the lengths of the objects from shortest to tallest.
