Metric Unit Conversions


Description

In Topic B, students continue to build off their measurement work from previous grade levels. They solidify their understanding of the relationship between metric units and the place value chart and apply unit conversions to solve and reason about multi-step word problems (4.MD.2). Applying the skills learned in Module 1, students discover and explore the relationship between place value and conversions. The beauty of both the place value and measurement systems is the efficiency and precision permitted by the use of different size units to express a given quantity. As students solve word problems by adding and subtracting metric units, their ability to reason in parts and wholes is taken to the next level.
