Measuring Mathematicians - 1st Grade

In this episode of Let's Learn GA!, students learn how to express the length of an object as a whole number of length units. Practice includes laying multiple copies of a shorter object end to end to measure a longer object.

MGSE1.MD.2

Express the length of an object as a whole number of length units, by laying multiple copies of a shorter object (the length unit) end to end; understand that the length measurement of an object is the number of same-size length units that span it with no gaps or overlaps. (Iteration)

Statistical Reasoning Framework, K-12

This video provides an explanation of the Framework for Statistical Reasoning for all grade levels, K-12. The framework is a part of the Essential Instructional Guidance adopted by the State Board of Education as an expectation for teaching and learning for the adopted standards. Data and Statistical Reasoning is an important big idea within Georgia's K-12 Mathematics Standards for all grade levels and courses. The Framework for Statistical Reasoning provides guidance to teachers on how to engage students in the four-part statistical problem-solving cycle with the goal of helping them to develop data and statistical literacy and reasoning. Statistical literacy is important for students to become engage, informed citizens in the world. A leading expert in statistics education provides information and strategies to support teachers with the implementation of this framework in the mathematics classroom.
