Synopsis:

This unit is to expose the students to the City of Arts and Science in Valencia. While virtually touring the complex of five buildings, they will be measuring and collecting data to chart in different graphs.

They will solve problems involving measurements and estimation using the concepts of intervals of time; liquid volumes, and masses of objects in metric system.
