We are trying to find a general, student-friendly definition for unit. We were considering using this: any group of things or persons regarded as an entity. At first we were considering that the definition needed to include something that said it had to be a consistent size (“tens”, “inches”, “halves”, etc.) that you can count, but then we thought about counting “pumpkins” that wouldn’t be the same size. We just want to be sure that we are consistent with the terminology used in the CCSS. Thank you.
