Dataset Description	Students engaging with this basic manipulative can first build an understanding of volume while using a single material and then density when using multiple materials. The Measuring Cups is a set of five nesting, polygonal containers with flat bottoms and tops. These measuring containers hold, and are labeled with, common US customary volume units (1 tsp, 1 tbsp, and fractional cups). Additionally, all containers feature the equivalent metric volume measure (e.g., 5ml, 15ml, etc.). Finally, the largest measuring container features the mass equivalencies (grams and oz) of 0.5 cups (120ml) of three common baking ingredients (flour, sugar, butter).

Sample Learning Goals	Comprehension: When using the smallest measuring container (2 tsp, 5ml), describe how many of the small containers are required to fill each of the other containers? Repeat the exercise for each of the containers except the ⅓ cup (80 ml). Explain your answers.; Application: Demonstrate that the ⅓ cup (80 ml) container is the equivalent volume of all the smaller containers.; Analysis: Using investigation with several easily accessible materials and a single measurement cup, plot and compare the weights of the materials. How do the weights differ given the constant volume? Verify your answers.; Synthesis: Using water as a source material along with other lab equipment (e.g., graduated cylinders) , compute, check, and record the actual volume of the volume of all the measuring cups.
