The teacher will ask the students about the previous discussion.
TODAY, we are going learn how to convert between units of measurement using
the Metric System.
 To introduce today’s lesson, I have a question for you:  Display Transparency
“What do these 3 countries have in common?”  Discuss why we need to be
familiar with the metric system.  Display Transparency “Transylvania Reading
Problem”
Pass out Student Notes.
 Review metric table and strategy “King Henry Died By Drinking Chocolate Milk”.
 Point out guidelines for picking the correct metric unit of measure.  Review steps
for converting units within the metric system.  Allow students to work 3 you-try
problems (independently)
Teach students how to convert between units of measure using MATH7 program on
TI84.  Allow students to rework you-try problem #2, 3 with calculator
(independently)
Using their personal unit measurement, have students determine the length of a
personal nonstandard inch. They should divide the length of their foot by 12.
(Example: If a student’s foot measures 8 inches, a non-standard inch would be 8
divided by 12 = .6.) Students may round their answer to the nearest eighth. Length
of my personal inch in standard inches:
“Measurement rules our lives. It has sliced up our world and helped us impose
order and logic on our restless universe.” Ask students: What do you think the
narrator means? What would a world with no measurements be like?
The teacher will ask volunteer to summarize the topic.
Why is it important that we learn something about the metric system? Well, all but
three countries in the world use the metric system. 2. What are the 3 basic
measurements? Meters (length), Grams (weight), Liters (capacity) 3. What is the
phrase you can use to help you fill out the metric table? King Henry Died by
 Drinking Chocolate Milk. 4. When converting from a bigger unit to a smaller unit,
which way do you move your decimal? Right 5. When converting from a smaller
unit to a bigger unit, which way do you move your decimal? Left
J. Additional activities for application or Question the students for understanding. Monitor students as they work on “you try”
remediation problems.
