Math: Measurement Unit Test Study Guide

Grade 3 Time and Temperature Study Guide
Test Date: Thursday, January 14th


Students should have an understanding of the following concepts:
- determine the relationship between days, weeks, and months on a calendar (i.e. if today is May 7th, it will be June 7th in one month)
- telling time on an analogue clock
- showing time on a blank analogue clock
- relating time on an analogue clock and digital clock
- using phrases such as, "quarter after or past", "quarter to", and "half past"
- elapsed time (i.e. if my soccer game starts at 5:00 pm and ends at 6:15 pm, how much time has elapsed?)
- identify benchmarks for temperature (i.e. water boils at 100 degrees C, water freezes at 0 degrees C, room temperature is approximately 21 degrees C)
- describe how changes in temperature affect everyday experiences (i.e. if it -20 degrees outside I should wear...)
- reading and recording temperature from a thermometer (i.e. we begin at zero and either read it going up or down)
- Problem solving questions
