The Art of Asking Good Questions Maria Mitchell Based on Good Questions for Math Teaching Why Ask Them and What to Ask By Lainie Schuster and Nancy Canavan Anderson Content Strands Measurement questions can be asked in conjunction with: Geometry Collect and analyze data Proportional reasoning Place value and decimal fractions Choosing appropriate measurement use of both customary and metric systems NCTM Measurement Standard for Grades 6–8 Understand both metric and customary systems of measurement; Understand relationships among units and convert from one unit to another within the same system; Understand, select, and use units of appropriate size and type to measure angles, perimeter, area, surface area, and volume. Apply appropriate techniques, tools, and formulas to determine measurements ? Use common benchmarks to select appropriate methods for estimating measurements; Select and apply techniques and tools to accurately find length, area, volume, and angle measures to appropriate levels of precision; Develop and use formulas to determine the circumference of circles and the area of triangles, parallelograms, trapezoids, and circles and develop strategies to find the area of more-complex shapes; Develop strategies to determine the surface area and volume of selected prisms, pyramids, and cylinders; ? Solve problems involving scale factors, using ratio and proportion; ? Solve simple problems involving rates and derived measurements for such attributes as velocity and density. Measurement Weight Area Length and Perimeter Volume and Capacity Weight I went shopping and found a one pound box of Snowflake Sugar Cubes for $1.70. A 1-kilogram box of White Cloud Sugar Cubes offered a better buy. How much might the White Cloud Sugar Cubes have cost? Weight Give the students the conversion (1 pound = 0.454 kilograms) so that they can estimate a possible price. Students should realize that 1 pound is about the same as half of 1 kilogram.
