Math Essential Questions Grade 5
The greatest number that is a factor of two or more numbers is the greatest common denominator. The extension of the knowledge of fractions will
provide the opportunity for students to be able to solve the many real world applications of fractions and mixed numbers. Grades 7 - 8. Unit
Essential Questions How can I use multiples? What are the types of triangles? Content Statements Review important terms in geometry and use
them to name and compare different shapes; find and name a point on the coordinate plane; become familiar with two-dimensional shapes and
learn to classify triangles and quadrilaterals. Content Statements Convert among customary units and metric units for length, weight and capacity;
read and interpret measurement data; use cubic units to find volume of rectangular prisms; find volumes of irregular solids. I can add mixed
numbers by writing each mixed number as an improper fraction; then convert them to have like denominators; finally, add the fractions and write
the answer in simplest form. Overarching Enduring Understandings Geometry is everywhere there are shapes. Volume is a measure of how much
space a solid figure encloses and is measured in cubic units. Unit Overview Students will identify angles, lines and polygons; symmetric figures and
lines of symmetry. Number and operations - Fractions. I can multiply decimals by doing the same process as whole numbers and then finding the
total number of decimal places in the factors; finally I can count that many places from the right n the product to place the decimal point. How can I
use rules to create number patterns? Unit Essential Questions How can I convert customary units? Unit Enduring Understandings I can find out if
fractions are equivalent by drawing pictures. I can find the volume of a rectangular prism with this formula: I can use place value to add or subtract
decimals. The types of angles are: Read, write, compare, order, and compute with decimals. Most applied math involves measurement. How is
geometry connected to my world? Overarching Enduring Understandings Fractions are connected to decimals. Understanding the attributes of
shapes provides a foundation for recognizing, analyzing and drawing more complex shapes and enhances the students capacity to grasp that shared
attributes can define a larger category. I can use models to understand decimals. The order of operations is a way to simplify problems by grouping
numbers operations together and solving them in this order multiply, divide, add and subtract. Overarching Enduring Understandings I can
compare and convert measurements, solve measurement problems and use line plots to interpret data. Students will write and interpret numerical
expressions; use the order of operations; and use rules to create numerical patterns in order to solve problems that involve algebra. Grades K - 2.
Students will identify angles, lines and polygons; symmetric figures and lines of symmetry. Number and operations - Fractions Grade Level: Unit
Rationale Students need to have a foundation in subtraction estimation and place value tables so they can solve multi-digit mathematical problems.
Content Statements Find equivalent fractions; change mixed numbers to improper fractions, change improper fractions to mixed numbers and
compare fractions; multiply and divide fractions. How do I round decimals? I can convert metric and customary units within a category by dividing
or multiplying. How can I read and write decimals? Overarching Enduring Understandings If I can use decimals, I can compute money problems
and understand more complex math in middle school Unit Essential Questions How can I use multiples? Unit Enduring Understandings I can
convert metric and customary units within a category by dividing or multiplying. Grades 9 - I can subtract fractions with like denominators by
keeping the denominator the same and subtracting the numerator. How do I add mixed numbers? Unit Essential Questions What is a coordinate
plane? I can use a pattern to multiply a decimal number by 10, or 1, Numbers and Operations in Base Ten: Do I need to use more than one
operation when I use line plots? Writing and interpreting numerical expressions; using the order of operations; using rules to create numerical
patterns. Students need to have a foundation in subtraction estimation and place value tables so they can solve multi-digit mathematical problems. I
can subtract mixed numbers by writing them as improper fractions and convert them so they have like denominators. How can I find out whether
fractions are equivalent? Convert among customary units and metric units for length, weight and capacity; read and interpret measurement data; use
cubic units to find volume of rectangular prisms; find volumes of irregular solids.
