The Data Analysis Unit involves collecting and organizing information in order to make it useful for summarizing and analyzing. Questions to answer may include:

The Measurement Unit involves identifying the attribute being measured (such as length, area, time, capacity or weight); selecting an appropriate unit (such as a unit of length, area, time, capacity or weight) and comparing that unit with what is being measured. Questions to answer may include:

• How does a unit of length differ from a unit of area?

• How can you use the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and/or division to solve problems involving the measurement of different attributes?

The Geometry Unit involves analyzing the defining attributes of 2-dimensional shapes in order to answer questions such as:

• What characteristics do all of the shapes in this category possess?

• How can you create additional examples to fit into the same category? Defend why your examples belong in the category.

• How can you create example shapes that do NOT fit into the category? Defend why your examples do NOT fit within the category.
