and U.S. customary units (teaspoons, tablespoons, cups, pints, quarts, gallons).
- Measure the perimeter of plane geometric figures such as triangles, quadrilaterals,
and irregular shaped polygons.
- Draw points, lines, line segments and rays and understand how they are related.
- Draw lines that are intersecting, parallel and perpendicular.
- Collect data and display in bar graphs with incremental values labeled on
the axes. Include a title and a legend.
