Unit Summary | In this unit students will explain why knowledge and skills acquired in the elementary grades lay the foundation for future academic and career success and apply appropriate academic and technical skills to working with equations, the rational number system and 2-D geometry.
Students will use substitution to determine whether a given number makes an equation or inequality true (CRP3). Students will solve real world problems by writing and solving equations of the form x + p = q and px = q (p, q, and x are non-negative rational numbers). (CRP8) Use positive and negative numbers to represent quantities in real-world situations, explaining the meaning of zero in the context of the real-world situation. Locate rational numbers and their opposites on horizontal and vertical number line; explain their relation of the opposites to zero. Plot pairs of positive and negative rational numbers in the coordinate plane; describe two ordered pairs that differ only by signs as reflections across one or both axes. Use statements of inequality to determine relative positions of two rational numbers on a number line; write and explain statements of order for rational numbers in real-world contexts. Explain the meaning of absolute value of a rational number as distance from zero on the number line and as magnitude for a positive or negative quantity in a real-world situation.(CRP4) Write an inequality of the form x > c or x < c to represent a constraint or condition in a real world or mathematical problem and represent them on a number line. Solve real world and mathematical problems by graphing points in all four quadrants of the coordinate plane. Use the absolute value of the differences of their coordinates to find distances between points with the same first coordinate or same second coordinate. Find the area of right triangles, other triangles, special quadrilaterals and polygons by composing into rectangles or decomposing into triangles and other shapes to solve real world or mathematical problems.

For example, in a problem involving motion at constant speed, list and graph ordered pairs of distances and times, and write the equation d = 65t to represent the relationship between distance and time. | MP.2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively. MP.4 Model with mathematics. MP.6 Attend to precision. | |
For example, “How old am I?” is not a statistical question, but “How old are the students in my school?” is a statistical question because one anticipates variability in students’ ages. | MP.2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively. MP.6 Attend to precision | |
| MP.4 Model with mathematics. | |
6.SP.B.5a. Reporting the number of observations. 6.SP.B.5b. Describing the nature of the attribute under investigation, including how it was measured and its units of measurement. 6.SP.B.5c. Giving quantitative measures of center (median and/or mean) and variability (interquartile range and/or mean absolute deviation), as well as describing any overall pattern and any striking deviations from the overall pattern with reference to the context in which the data were gathered. 6.SP.B.5d. Relating the choice of measures of center and variability to the shape of the data distribution and the context in which the data were gathered. | MP.2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively. MP.4 Model with mathematics. MP.5 Use appropriate tools strategically. | |
*(benchmarked) 6.RP.A.3a. Make tables of equivalent ratios relating quantities with whole number measurements, find missing values in the tables, and plot the pairs of values on the coordinate plane. Use tables to compare ratios. 6.RP.A.3b. Solve unit rate problems including those involving unit pricing and constant speed. For example, if it took 7 hours to mow 4 lawns, then at that rate, how many lawns could be mowed in 35 hours? At what rate were lawns being mowed? 6.RP.A.3c. Find a percent of a quantity as a rate per 100 (e.g., 30% of a quantity means 30/100 times the quantity); solve problems involving finding the whole, given a part and the percent.
6.RP.A.3d. Use ratio reasoning to convert measurement units; manipulate and transform units appropriately when multiplying or dividing quantities. | MP.2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively. MP.4 Model with mathematics. MP.5 Use appropriate tools strategically MP.6 Attend to precision. MP.7 Look for and make use of structure. MP.8 Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning | |
| MP.1 Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. MP.2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively. MP.5 Use appropriate tools strategically. | |
