Goal 7: Estimate and Measure

Estimate, make, and use measurements of objects, quantities, and relationships and determine acceptable levels of accuracy.

The Activities provide practical applications. After the students have developed a math competency, they can keep it in active use by applying it in science and social studies contexts.

The Data section includes table for use with the activities and as a resource for your own project development.
