New Zealand
NZ-Y2-MATH-MEAS-M-1 estimate and use an informal unit repeatedly to measure the length, mass (weight), volume, or capacity of an object
NZ-Y2-MATH-MEAS-M-2 compare and order several objects using informal units of length, mass (weight), volume, or capacity
NZ-Y2-MATH-MEAS-M-4 name and order the months and seasons, and describe the duration of familiar events using months, weeks, days, and hours
United Kingdom
UK-KS1-Y2-MATH-M Pupils should be taught to: choose and use appropriate standard units to estimate and measure length/height in any direction (m/cm); mass (kg/g); temperature (°C); capacity (litres/ml) to the nearest appropriate unit, using rulers, scales, thermometers and measuring vessels compare and order lengths, mass, volume/capacity and record the results using >, < and = recognise and use symbols for pounds (£) and pence (p); combine amounts to make a particular value find different combinations of coins that equal the same amounts of money solve simple problems in a practical context involving addition and subtraction of money of the same unit, including giving change compare and sequence intervals of time tell and write the time to five minutes, including quarter past/to the hour and draw the hands on a clock face to show these times know the number of minutes in an hour and the number of hours in a day
US Common Core (CCSS)
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.1.MD.A.1 Order three objects by length; compare the lengths of two objects indirectly by using a third object.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.1.MD.A.2 Express the length of an object as a whole number of length units, by laying multiple copies of a shorter object (the length unit) end to end; understand that the length measurement of an object is the number of same-size length units that span it with no gaps or overlaps. Limit to contexts where the object being measured is spanned by a whole number of length units with no gaps or overlaps.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.1.MD.B.3 Tell and write time in hours and half-hours using analog and digital clocks.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.1.G.A.1 Distinguish between defining attributes (e.g., triangles are closed and three-sided) versus non-defining attributes (e.g., color, orientation, overall size); build and draw shapes to possess defining attributes.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.1.OA.A.1 Use addition and subtraction within 20 to solve word problems involving situations of adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all positions, e.g., by using objects, drawings, and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.
Texas (TEKS)

TEKS-MATH-G1-7A use measuring tools to measure the length of objects to reinforce the continuous nature of linear measurement;
TEKS-MATH-G1-7B illustrate that the length of an object is the number of same-size units of length that, when laid end-to-end with no gaps or overlaps, reach from one end of the object to the other;
TEKS-MATH-G1-7C measure the same object/distance with units of two different lengths and describe how and why the measurements differ;
TEKS-MATH-G1-7D describe a length to the nearest whole unit using a number and a unit; and
Ontario
