-Explores the development of elementary students' understanding of the mathematics of measure, demonstrating how measurement can serve as an anchor for supporting a deeper understanding of future mathematics learning, as well as learning in other STEM disciplines.
-Describes a learning progression built on benchmarks of student learning about measure in length, angle, area, volume, and rational number, exploring related concepts, classroom experiences, and instructional practices at each stage-an approach relevant for scholars, teacher educators, and specialists in math education.
-Written by two leading researchers in math and science education, who draw from decades of experience in K-5 classroom research.
-Accompanied by online resources developed for practitioners, including instructional guides, examples of student thinking, and other teacher-focused materials, helping clarify how to bring concepts of measure and rational number to life in classrooms.
