In Leesson 8, students use scale
es to measure the weight of objects preecisely, and tthen use thosse meaasurements to
o solve one‐step word pro
oblems with liike units. Woord problems require students to add, subttract, multiplyy, and divide.. Students ap
pply estimatio
on skills from Lesson 7 to rreason about their solutions. In Leessons 9 and 10, students measure liqu
uid volume in liters using bbeakers and the vertical nu
umber line. TThis expeerience lendss itself to prevviewing the co
oncept and laanguage of roounding: Stud
dents might eestimate, for exam
mple, a given quantity as h
halfway betw
ween 1 and 2, or nearer to 2. Students u
use small con
ntainers to deco
ompose 1 lite
er and reason
n about its size

ork with milliiliters and the
e multiplicativve relationship of metric m
measurementt units (4.MD

dents solve on
ne‐step word problems wiith like units u
using all four operations. Topic B culminates in solving o
one‐step worrd problems w
