About the Mathematics in This Unit

Benchmarks/Goals Examples
Represent measurement data on a line plot. A line plot titled “Rabbit Jumps.” d
Solve comparison and other story problems about lengths.

Jake jumped two times.

1st jump: 63 inches

2nd jump: 59 inches

  • 1. How much longer was Jake's first jump than his second jump?

  • 2. If you combine Jake's jumps, how far did he jump?

You will soon receive suggestions for activities to do at home that further support the mathematics in this unit. We look forward to sharing our measurement work with you.
