Grade One Outcomes:
Outcome SS1:
Demonstrate an understanding of measurement as a process of comparing by: identifying attributes that can be compared; ordering objects; making statements of comparison; filling, covering or matching.
Outcome Building Blocks:
Building Block A: Identify common attributes such as length (height), mass (weight), volume (capacity), and area which could be used to compare a given set of two objects.
Building Block B: Predict and determine which of two or more given objects is longest or shortest by matching and explaining the reasoning.
Building Block C: Predict and determine which of two or more given objects is heaviest/lightest by comparing and explain the reasoning.
Building Block D: Predict and determine which of two or more given objects holds the most/least by filling and explain the reasoning.
Building Block E: Predict and determine which of two or more given objects has the greatest/least area by covering and explain the reasoning.
Building Block F: Predict and compare two given objects and identify the attributes used to compare.

Kindergarten Outcomes:
SS1 Use direct comparison to compare two objects based on a single attribute, such as length (height), mass (weight) and volume (capacity)
1. Use reasonable predictions and compare the length (height) of two given objects and explain the comparison, using the words shorter, longer (taller) or almost the same
2.Use a common starting point (base line) when 2 objects are close in length to get an accurate comparison
3. Make reasonable predictions and compare the mass (weight) of two given objects and explain the comparison, using the words lighter, heavier or almost the same
4. Make reasonable predictions and compare the volume (capacity) of two given objects and explain the comparison, using the words less, more, bigger, smaller or almost the same

SS3 Build and describe 3-D objects
1. Use reasonable predictions and compare the length (height) of two given objects and explain the comparison, using the words shorter, longer (taller) or almost the same

SS2 Sort 3-D objects using a single attribute
- Sort a given set of familiar 3-D objects using a single attribute, such as size or shape
- Explain the sorting rule of objects (sorted by student)
- Determine the difference between two given pre-sorted sets by explaining a sorting rule used to sort them
SS3 Build and describe 3-D objects
- Create a representation of a given 3-D object, using materials such as modeling clay and building blocks, and compare the representation to the original 3-D object
- Describe a given 3-D object, using words such as big, little, round, like a box and like a can (Note: the focus of this outcome is on students using the attribute of the shape/object, not the name of the shape or object)
