• Student Learning Outcomes

    Students will be able to:

    Place Value & Decimals

    • Recognize that in a multi-digit number, a digit in the ones place represents 10 times as much as it represents in the place to its right and 1/10 of what it represents in the place to its left. 
    • Use whole-number exponents to denote powers of 10. Explain patterns in the number of zeroes of the product when multiplying a number by powers of 10, and explain patterns in the placement of the decimal point when a decimal is multiplied or divided by a power of 10. 
    • Read, write, compare, and round decimal numbers. 
    • Perform all four operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) with multi-digit whole numbers and decimals to the hundredth place. 

    Fractions

    • Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators (including mixed numbers).
      • Solve word problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions referring to the same whole. 
    • Interpret a fraction as division of the numerator by the denominator.
      • Solve word problems involving division of whole numbers leading to answers in the form of fractions and mixed numbers. 
    • Multiply fractions by fractions, fractions by whole numbers, and fractions by mixed numbers. 
      • Find the area of a rectangle with fractional side lengths by tiling it with rectangles of the appropriate unit fraction side lengths. 
      • Represent fraction multiplication using rectangular area models.
      • Solve word problems involving multiplication of fractions and mixed numbers.  
    • Interpret multiplication as scaling. 
      • Reason about the size of a product based on the size of the factors. 
    • Divide whole numbers by unit fractions and unit fractions by whole numbers. 
      • Solve word problems involving division of whole numbers by unit fractions and unit fractions by whole numbers. 
    • Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit.  Perform fraction computation to solve problems involving information presented in line plots. 

    Volume

    • Recognize a unit cube as a cube with side lengths of one unit and that it is used to measure volume. 
    • Recognize that a solid figure which can be packed without gaps or overlaps using n unit cubes is said to have a volume of n cubic units. 
    • Measure volume by counting unit cubes. 
    • Find the volume of a right rectangular prism by using the formula V = l x w x h OR V = B x h.
    • Find the volume of composite figures by adding the volume of its parts. 
    • Solve word problems about the volume of right rectangular figures and composite figures composed of nonoverlapping right rectangular prisms. 

    Measurement

    • Convert between large and small units within either the Metric System or the US Customary System.
    • Solve multi-step word problems involving unit conversions. 

    Geometry

    • Graph points on the coordinate plane to solve real-world and mathematical problems.
    • Classify two-dimensional figures into categories based on their properties. 

    Operations & Algebraic Thinking

    • Write and interpret numerical expressions
      • Evaluate expressions using the order of operations.
      • Write and interpret simple numerical expressions. 
    • Identify and extend a numerical pattern to generate ordered pairs.
