Unit Overview

• This unit provides students with the opportunity to measure various objects and use their data to determine area, volume, radius, diameter, and density.  
• They will use Math rulers, protractors, and Vernier Calipers to make their measurements rounding to four different scales.  They will measure the radius and diameter of a cylinder and use Pi to calculate the area of various cylindrical objects. 
• Students will measure the circumference and determine the surface area of a sphere and using the thickness of the wall of a hollow sphere, determine the volume inside the sphere as well.  The mathematical skills emphasized in Intermediate Level Measurement are measuring, collecting data, and calculating for volume, area, and density.
