Unit 1: Statistics
Students will develop an understanding of variability and the concept of statistical measures of center. They will
learn to recognize statistical questions, describe and summarize data sets using a number line, including measures of center and variability, and display data using box plots and histograms. |
Unit 2: Intro to Ratio Reasoning
Students will solve real-world problems to master computational fluency of adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions and decimals while using basic ratio and rate reasoning as a real-world context for application.
|
Unit 3: Ratio Reasoning
Students will use real-world contexts to interpret, evaluate, and write algebraic expressions and equations (that
include variables) to solve problems involving the relationship between two quantities and percentages. Ratios and proportional relationships will be represented in many ways including tape diagrams, tables, and double number lines. |
Unit 4: Expressions and Equations
During this mini unit, students will use properties of operations (e.g. property of equality, identity property, distributive property, etc.) to identify and generate equivalent expressions. Students will also solve real-world mathematical problems by writing and solving algebraic equations.
|
Unit 5: Integers and the Coordinate Plane
Students will develop a real-world understanding of integers and other rational numbers. They will locate points
that are rational numbers on a number line and in ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. |
Unit 6: Comparing Integers
Students will extend, interpret and use absolute value to write, graph, and solve real-world problems. Students will write inequalities and compare integers. They will also find distances on the coordinate plane.
|
Unit 7: Area and Volume
Students will solve area and surface area problems of polygons composed of triangles, squares, and rectangles.
They will find volume of right rectangular prisms with fractional edges. Students will also convert measurements and use their knowledge of equations to solve problems. |
