Outcome

M.6.1 Students will calculate sums, differences, products, and quotients fluently with positive rational numbers and apply these operations to real world contexts.
M.6.2 Students will calculate sums, differences, products, and quotients fluently with positive decimals and apply these operations to real world contexts.
M.6.3 Students will compare and order rational numbers to show the relationship between the number system and the real world.
M.6.4 Students will represent different locations on the coordinate plane in all four quadrants and apply this to real world contexts.
M.6.5 Students will generate and compare ratios to solve problems and apply to real world contexts.
M.6.6 Students will solve percent problems and use proportional reasoning to solve problems in real world contexts.
M.6.7 Students will write numeric expressions to represent quantities.
M.6.8 Students will write algebraic expressions to represent quantities and determine if expressions are equivalent.
M.6.9 Students will write and solve equations to solve real world problems. Students will define inequalities and graph the solution set on a number line.
M.6.10 Students will calculate area, surface area, and volume using formulas and apply this to real world contexts.
M.6.11 Students will differentiate between independent and dependent variables to write an equation.
M.6.12 Students will calculate measures of center and spread.
M.6.13 Students will construct histograms, line plots, and box plots.
M.6.14 Students will analyze measures of center and variability of given data.
