3 Trouble Shooting Guide The Mathematics Curriculum Document for Grade 6 includes the following features: The NISD Curriculum Document is a TEKS-Based Curriculum. Year at a Glance Indicating Bundle Titles and Number of Days for Instruction Color Coding: Green- Readiness Standards, Yellow- Supporting Standards, Blue- Process Standards, Purple- ELPS, Strike-Out- Portion of TEKS not Taught in Current Bundle NISD Math Instructional Focus Information The expectation is that teachers will share additional effective resources with their campus Curriculum & Instructional Coach for inclusion in the document. The NISD Curriculum Document is a working document. Additional resources and information will be added as they become available. **The resources included here provide teaching examples and/or meaningful learning experiences to address the District Curriculum. In order to address the TEKS to the proper depth and complexity, teachers are encouraged to use resources to the degree that they are congruent with the TEKS and research-based best practices. Teaching using only the suggested resources does not guarantee student mastery of all standards. Teachers must use professional judgment to select among these and/or other resources to teach the district curriculum. 3

4 NISD Math Focus Best Practices in the Math Classroom Teaching for Conceptual Understanding: Math instruction should focus on developing a true understanding of the math concepts being presented in the classroom. Teachers should avoid teaching quick tricks for finding the right answers and instead focus on developing student understanding of the why behind the math. Math is not a list of arbitrary steps that need to be memorized and performed, but is, rather, a logical system full of deep connections. When students see math as a set of disconnected steps to follow they tend to hold many misconceptions, make common mistakes, and do not retain what they have learned. However, when students understand the connections they have fewer misconceptions, make less errors, and tend to retain what they have learned. Developing Student Understanding through the Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract Approach: When learning a new math concept, students should be taken through a 3-step process of concept development. This process is known as the Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract approach. During the concrete phase, students should participate in hands-on activities using manipulatives to develop an understanding of the concept. During the pictorial phase, students should use pictorial representations to demonstrate the math concepts. This phase often overlaps with the concrete phase as students draw a representation of what they are doing with the manipulatives. During the abstract phase, students use symbols and/or numbers to represent the math concepts. This phase often overlaps with the pictorial phase as students explain their thinking in pictures, numbers, and words. If math concepts are only taught in the abstract level, students attain a very limited understanding of the concepts. However, when students go through the 3-step process of concept development they achieve a much deeper level of understanding. Developing Problem Solving Skills through Quality Problem Solving Opportunities: Students should be given opportunities to develop their problem solving skills on a daily basis. One effective approach to problem solving is the think-pair-share approach. Students should first think about and work on the problem independently. Next, students should be given the opportunity to discuss the problem with a partner or small group of other students. Finally, students should be able to share their thinking with the whole group. The teacher can choose students with different approaches to the problem to put their work under a document camera and allow them to talk through their thinking with the class. The focus of daily problem solving should always be Quality over Quantity. It is more important to spend time digging deep into one problem than to only touch the surface of multiple problems. Developing Problem Solving Skills through Pictorial Modeling: One of the most important components of students problem solving development is the ability to visualize the problem. Students should always draw a pictorial representation of the problem they are trying to solve. A pictorial model helps students to better visualize the problem in order to choose the correct actions needed to solve it. Pictorial modeling in math can be done with pictures as simple as sticks, circles, and boxes. There is no need for detailed artistic representations. One of the most effective forms of pictorial modeling is the strip diagram (or part-part-whole model in lower grades). This type of model allows students to see the relationships between the numbers in the problem in order to choose the proper operations. 4

5 Developing Students Number Sense: The development of number sense is a critical part of a student s learning in the mathematics classroom. The ability to reason about numbers and their relationships allows students the opportunity to think instead of just following a rote set of procedures. The standard algorithms for computation may provide students with a quick answer, but they do not allow for development of student thinking and reasoning. The standard algorithms should not be abandoned completely, but should be used as one of many ways of approaching a computation problem. It is, however, very important that students have the opportunity to develop their number sense through alternative computation strategies before learning the standard algorithm in order to prevent students from having a limited view of number relationships. Creating an Environment of Student Engagement: The most effective math classrooms are places in which students have chances to interact with their teacher, their classmates, and the math content. Students should be given plenty of opportunities to explore and investigate new math concepts through higher-order, rigorous, and hands-on activities. Cooperative learning opportunities are critical in order for students to talk through what they are learning. The goal should be for the student to work harder than the teacher and for the student to do more of the talking. Higher Level Questioning: The key to developing student thinking is in the types of questions teachers ask their students. Teachers should strive to ask questions from the top three levels of Bloom s Taxonomy to probe student thinking. 5

6 NISD Math Focus Developing Problem Solving through a 4-Square Model Approach The 4-square problem solving model should be used to help guide students through the problem solving process. It is important that students complete step 2 (pictorial modeling) before attempting to solve the problem abstractly (with computation). When students create a visual model for the problem they are better able to recognize the appropriate operation(s) for solving the problem. Dragon Problem Solving 1. What is the problem asking? 2. This is how I see the problem. (pictorial/ strip diagram) 3. This is how I solve the problem. (computation) 4. I know my work is correct because... (justify) 6

12 TEKS/Student Expectations 6.2A: classify whole numbers, integers, and rational numbers using a visual representation such as a Venn diagram to describe relationships between sets of numbers Bundle 1: Teacher Notes Instructional Implications Distractor Factors Supporting Readiness Standards In accordance with the standard, students will not only classify whole numbers, integers, and rational numbers but describe how these sets of numbers are related to each other. Instruction should include the use of visual representations (i.e. Venn Diagram) to demonstrate the interrelationship between the terms. Describing the relationship between whole numbers, integers, and rational numbers will support its application to the graphing of ordered pairs in all four quadrants. 6.11A graph points in all four quadrants using ordered pairs of rational numbers. TEA Supporting Information A Venn diagram is an applicable visual representation as the SE focused on classification of numbers. As there is no unified definition for these terms, the natural numbers will be taken to mean {1,2,3,.}, and the whole numbers will be taken to mean {0,1,2,3.}. 6.2B: identify a number, its opposite, and its absolute value The use of a number line may support students with this understanding (i.e. begin with a number line marked 0, 1, 2,3 to reflect all whole numbers; extend the number line to include the negative numbers -1, -2, -3 to reflect integers; discuss fractional and decimal values in between integers- 2.5, -0.05, 0, -1/-3, 1 1/2., 5/4 to reflect rational numbers). In adherence to the standard, instruction will merge the understanding of opposite numbers and absolute values (i.e. how far a number is from zero) to avoid student misconceptions of the two terms. Through the use of a number line (i.e. horizontal and vertical that include examples of rational numbers), students will understand that the opposite of a given number is the same distance away from zero as the As students will need an understanding of zero pairs to add/subtract integers and to model/ solve equations and inequalities, knowing the difference between opposite and absolute value will be foundational. 6.3D add, subtract, multiply and divide integers fluently 6.10A model and solve onevariable, one-step equations This SE may be used to introduce the concept of integers with the identification of a number, its opposite, and its absolute value. When 6.2B is paired with 6.1A, students may be expected to apply the skill of identifying integers in everyday life. 12

13 6.2C: locate, compare, and order integers and rational numbers using a number line given number (i.e. 5 and -5 are both five units away from zero; -5/8 and 5/8 are both units from zero). It is important students understand the opposite sign (i.e. - ) places a number to the opposite side of zero (i.e. -6 may be read as the opposite of 6 which is negative 6 and (-1.5) may be read as the opposite of the opposite of 1.5 which is 1.5). Instruction will extend the study of distance from zero by introducing the absolute value symbolism (i.e. l5l = 5 and l-5l=5) as the length away from zero. Instruction can relate the idea that this symbolism for absolute value is a mathematician s version of texting the question, How many units away from zero is the number? As length cannot be presented as a negative number, all absolute values should be reflected as nonnegative rational numbers. Instruction should include a variety of problems (i.e. a submarine dives to a depth of feet which may be describe as l-200.5l which translates to feet below sea level). In adherence to the TEKS and in conjunction with 6.2E/6.4E, students should be fluid in representing rational numbers in a variety of forms (i.e. 7/10, 0.7, 70%). This standard will apply that knowledge in comparing and ordering numbers. Instruction should have students comparing/ ordering a mixture of rational number representations (i.e. order the following: -4 ¾, 4.667, 4.67%). As students compare two rational numbers, they should be using the correct academic vocabulary (i.e. 5 ¼<5.3; five and one-fourth is less than five and three-tenths). Instruction should connect the comparative language to the symbols (>, <, =). It is and inequalities that represent problems, including geometric concepts This standard describes the mathematical relationship found in integers and rational numbers; this relationship will support students in identifying the value of an integer or rational number in order to effectively order rational numbers. 6.2D order a set of rational numbers arising from mathematical and real-world contexts 8.2D order a set of real numbers arising from The SE includes the use of the absolute value symbol and the formal mathematics vocabulary as students identify a number and its opposite as being the same distance away from zero, or having the same absolute value. The term opposite refers to the additive inverse of a number. Comparing and ordering of rational numbers includes integers and negative rational numbers. This SE includes the number line as a tool for locating, comparing, and ordering integers and rational numbers. 13

14 6.2D: order a set of rational numbers arising from mathematical and real-world contexts 6.2E: extend representations for division to include fraction notation such critical that students understand how to correctly read and interpret each of the symbols not as a trick to remember directionality of the symbols (i.e. the alligator s mouth eats the bigger number). The standard also has students ordering three or more rational numbers from least to greatest or greatest to least. The use of open number lines will allow students to compare and order rational numbers more efficiently, especially when comparing and ordering negative rational numbers (i.e. numbers increasing from left to right on a number line can be associated to ordering from least to greatest; numbers decreasing from right to left on a number line can be associated to ordering from greatest to least. In conjunction with 6.2C, students will use number lines to order a set of rational numbers arising from mathematical and real-world contexts (i.e. newspaper advertisements, stock market values, temperatures, etc). Instruction should have students comparing/ ordering a mixture of rational number representations (i.e. order the following tool lengths from shortest to longest: 5 ½, 21/4, 5, 5.75, 5.6 ). In adherence with the standard, examples are not limited to positive values; examples should also extend to positive and negative rational numbers and zero (i.e. order the following temperatures from least to greatest: -11, 1, 23, 0, 14, -6 ). In adherence to the standard, instruction should model the various representations of division (i.e. * Students may disregard the sign of negative integers when ordering non-positive numbers. * Students may compare the number of digits instead of applying their understanding of place value to determine the value of decimals (i.e is greater than 0.98 because it has more digits). * Students may not understand that 0.7 is equivalent to * Students need to understand the context of problems to order decimals correctly (i.e. when ordering time from fastest to slowest, students may want to order from greatest to least). mathematical and real-world contexts Relating fraction notation to division will be essential as students divide positive rational numbers (ie. ½ / ½) The SE continues the ordering of rational numbers. The SE extends the ordering of rational numbers to include integers and negative rational numbers. Students have seen fraction notation with whole number values when writing expressions 14

15 as a/b represents the same number as a b where b 0 ). Students should identify the quotient, dividend, and divisor components in each representation. and generate equivalent expressions using order of operations (i.e. ). and equations. This SE includes the understanding that one can divide the numerator of a fraction by its denominator to yield a decimal equivalent. 6.4E: represent ratios and percents with concrete models, fractions, and decimals In accordance with the standard, students will use concrete model, fractions, and decimals to represent ratios and percents. The term percent is another name for hundredths. Instruction should include a variety of concrete models (i.e. 100 pennies, 10 by 10 grids, base ten fraction models). The concrete models may be used to model fractions and decimals (i.e. 50/100 and 0.50 represent the ratio and the percent 50%). It is important to have students equate hundredths with percents orally and in writing (i.e. 75/100 is written as the decimal 0.75 and is read 75 hundredths; since percent is another name for hundredths it also may be read as 75 percent and written 75%). Instruction should include concrete models, fractions, and decimals to represent percents greater than 100% (i.e. 1 ¼, 1.25 represents the percent 125%). In adherence to the standard, ratios Representing ratios and percents with concrete objects will provide the foundational understanding of how to abstractly multiply/ divide rational numbers, solve percentage problems, and apply to ratio and rates situations. 6.3E multiply and divide positive rational number fluently 6.4B apply qualitative and quantitative reasoning to solve prediction and comparison of real-world problems involving ration and rates 6.5B solve real-world problems to find the whole given a part and the percent, to find the part given the whole and the percent, and to find the percent given the part and the whole, including This extends the notion that 4/4=1, 1 ¼=5/4 or 1.25, 6/4=1 2/4 or 1.5, etc. to thinking about ¼ as 0.25 using the standard algorithm for division to yield the same result as converting ¼ into a fraction with a denominator of 100. Percents may be represented by improper fractions or mixed numbers when comparing to the whole. Ratios may be represented by improper fractions when comparing parts to the whole or the comparison of two mixed numbers or a mixed number to one. 15

16 should also be represented with concrete objects, fractions, and decimals. Instruction should include a variety of examples to model connections (i.e. with two color counters, model how there are twice as many girls as boys in the class: the use of concrete and pictorial models 6.4F: represent benchmark fractions and percents such as 1%, 10%, 25%, 33 1/3%, and multiples of these values using 10 by 10 grids, strip diagrams, number lines, and numbers 6.5C: use equivalent fractions, decimals, and percents to show equal In conjunction with 6.4E, as students begin to think about the relative size of various percents and fractions, they will need to begin to develop and represent benchmark fractions and percents (i.e. 1%, 10%, 25%, 33 1/3% and the multiples of these values). Instruction should include a variety of representations using 10 by 10 grids (i.e. the shading of 10 squares on 1 10 by 10 grid represents the benchmark of 10% and the fraction benchmark 10/100 or 1/10); strip diagrams (i.e. the folding of a strip of paper into thirds would represent the benchmark of 33 1/3% and 66 2/3% and the fraction benchmark 1/3 and 2/3; number lines (i.e. a number line divided into ten equal parts would represent the benchmark 10%, 20%, 30%, etc. and the fraction benchmarks 1/10, 2/10, 3/10, etc.; and numbers (i.e.50 is half of 100 which represents 50% or ½, 25 cents represents ¼ of a dollar or 25% of a dollar). The use of benchmarking fractions and percents will allow students to become more fluid with estimation and reasonableness in problem solving. In accordance with this standard, students use fractions, decimals, and percents that are equivalent to show Estimating is a critical foundation for being able to determine reasonableness of sums/differences/ products and quotients. Benchmarking fractions and percents will allow students the ability to determine if their solutions are reasonable. 6.4B apply qualitative and quantitative reasoning to solve prediction and comparison of real-world problems involving ratios and rates 6.5B solve real-world problems to find the whole given a part and the percent, to find the part given the whole and the percent, and to find the percent given the part and the whole including the use of concrete and pictorial models 6.3E multiply and divide positive rational numbers fluently This standard is setting the concrete understanding of how fractions, decimals, and Specificity includes percent benchmarks and models. The equivalent values should be used to describe the same 16

17 parts of the same whole equal parts of the same whole. Instruction might include the use of a 10x10 grid (i.e. one row of ten squares represents 10/100, 1/10, 0.1, 0.10, 10%), circle graphs (i.e. a circle divided into four equal parts with one part shaded represents ¼, 0.25, 25%), number lines (i.e. a number line divided into five equal parts with two out of five parts marked represents 2/5, 4/10, 0.4, 0.40, 40%). Students need to be able to justify the equivalence of each of their representations. percents that are related to the same whole are equivalent. Flexibility moving between fractions, decimals, and percents will support a student s ability to generate equivalent forms in order to solve problems. 6.4G generate equivalent forms of fractions, decimals, and percents using realworld problems, including problems that involve money. whole. The equivalent values may be greater than one. 17

19 Vocabulary Cognitive Complexity Verbs: recognize, determine, multiply, divide Academic Vocabulary by Standard: 6.3A: denominator, division, equivalent, expressions, multiplication, numerator, product, quotient, rational number, reciprocal 6.3B: decreased, denominator, factor, fraction, improper fraction, increased, mixed number, multiplication, numerator, product, proper fraction, quantity, unit fraction 6.3E: decimals, denominator, dividend, division, divisor, factors, fractions, integers, mixed numbers, multiplication, positive rational numbers, product, quotient, reciprocal, whole numbers, per, each Essential Questions What role does renaming fractions play in multiplying and dividing? Justify these changes. Does multiplication always result in a product larger than either factor? Explain Does division always result in a quotient smaller than the dividend and divisor? Explain Do fractional pieces have to be the same size to multiply and divide fractions like when you add and subtract fractions? Why or why not? 19

20 TEKS/Student Expectations 6.3A: recognize that dividing by a rational number and multiplying by its reciprocal result in equivalent values 6.3B: determine, with and without computation, whether a quantity is Bundle 2: Teacher Notes Instructional Implications Distractor Factors Supporting Readiness Standards In accordance with the standard, it is essential that students have a conceptual understanding of how dividing a rational number and multiplying by its reciprocal yield equal values (i.e. ½ x 1/3 = 1/6; ½ 3 = 1/6, where students need to determine what the value would be if ½ is divided equally into 3 groups) not as a memorized rule (i.e. dividing fractions just invert and multiply). Instruction should provide real-world examples of how this algorithm works (i.e. dividing a piece of paper in to two equal parts 1 2 is the same as taking half of a whole sheet of paper ½ x 1). Modeling examples of division of fractions and multiplication of its reciprocal with pattern blocks, fraction strips, and/or fraction circles will help build that conceptual understanding. To reinforce dividing by a rational number and multiplying by its reciprocal result in equivalent values, students can also enter the division expression and the multiplication expression into a calculator and compare the quotients and products of both expressions. The intention of this standard is to ensure student understanding of the It is critical for students to develop the conceptual understanding of dividing a rational number by its reciprocal resulting in equivalent values as students move toward multiplying and dividing rational numbers fluently. This supporting standard provides that developmental progression. 6.3E multiply and divide positive rational numbers fluently It is critical for students to develop the conceptual understanding of whether a TEA Supporting Information This SE builds to 6.3E by laying a foundation for algorithms for fraction multiplication and division. This SE builds to 6.3E and supports the combination of fluent computation in 20

21 increased or decreased when multiplied by a fraction, including values greater than or less than one 6.3E: multiply and divide positive rational numbers fluently magnitude of numbers when multiplying by fractional values such that the product may or may not have a greater value than the factors (i.e. ½ * ¼ = 1/8 or 5/2 * 3/2 = 15/4= 3 ¾ ). Instruction should include the modeling of such examples with visual representations and include values greater than and less than one. Students should have many experiences to be able to determine whether a quantity increases or decreases when multiplied by a fraction. To reinforce if a quantity increases or decreases when multiplied by a fraction, students can also enter different multiplication problems into a calculator and compare the product to the factors. In accordance with the standard, students should begin multiplying and dividing rational numbers fluently. Rational numbers include whole number, fractions, decimals, and percentages. In conjunction with 6.2A, instruction should include multiplication and division of rational numbers in various (i.e. 2/5 x 0.6 or 2/5 x 60% or 0.4 x 60%) and products/ quotients represented in various forms (i.e. 2/5 x 0.6 = 0.24 or 24/100 or 6/25 or 24%). An emphasis on solving problems and justifying solutions may support students in the development of fluency. Estimating products/ quotients prior to solving will allow students to apply reasonableness to solutions. * Students may find a common denominator to multiply fractions * Students may line up the decimal point to multiply decimals *Students may not relate division to multiplying by the reciprocal, such as 2/5 3 as equivalent to 2/5 * 1/3 * Students may incorrectly represent percents, such as 6% as 0.6 quantity is increased or decreased when multiplying by a fraction as students move toward multiplying and dividing rational numbers fluently. This standard will support them in justifying whether their solutions are reasonable. 6.3E multiply and divide positive rational numbers fluently 6.3E and estimation in 6.1C. Students may be asked to compare the factors and the related product. Students continue to work with multiplication and division of rational numbers. Ratios and rates are related to rational number concepts. The SE 6.3E expects students to multiply and divide positive fractions and decimal values fluently. The foundation for this fluency begins in grade 5 with 5.3D, 5.3E, 5.3F, 5.3G, 5.3I, 5.3J, and 5.3L. 21

24 TEKS/Student Expectations 6.3C: represent integer operations with concrete models and connect the actions with the models to standardized algorithms 6.3D: add, subtract, multiply, and divide integers fluently Bundle 3: Teacher Notes Instructional Implications Distractor Factors Supporting Readiness Standards In accordance to the standard, it is essential that students have a conceptual understanding of the integer operations (i.e. 4 (-2) = x; subtraction represents distance between two numbers and this equation is asking for the distance between 4 and -2 which is 6)), not just a memorized rule (i.e. 4 (-2) = x; when subtracting a negative number just put the two negative signs together to make a plus sign and add so = 6). Instruction should include a variety of representations for students to relate their understanding (i.e. two colored counting chips, number lines, etc.) and real world examples (i.e. bank balance using credits {positive} and debits {negative}; the sum between the credit and debits determines the value of the bank balance). To extend student exploration of integer operations, students can enter a variety of integer operational problems into a calculator to generalize an algorithm. In conjunction with 6.3C, as students model the actions of +/-/x/ with concrete objects/ pictorial models they will begin to discover a standard algorithm to calculate such values fluently (i.e. a negative * Students may have difficulty determining the sign (positive or negative) for the sum, difference, product, or quotient when performing the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and It is critical for students to develop the conceptual understanding of adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing integers with concrete models and connecting those actions to the standardized algorithm.

25 number added to another negative number always yields a negative sum; a negative number multiplied by a negative number always yields a positive product). An emphasis on solving problems and justifying solutions may support students in the development of fluency. Instruction should include mixing the various operations to ensure students flexibility in moving among the operations. division on integers. 25

26 Course: Grade 6 Math Bundle 4: Proportional Reasoning Dates: October 27 th - December 2 nd (22 days) TEKS 6.4B: apply qualitative and quantitative reasoning to solve prediction and comparison of real-world problems involving ratios and rates 6.4C: give examples of ratios as multiplicative comparisons of two quantities describing the same attribute 6.4D: give examples of rates as the comparison by division of two quantities having different attributes, including rates as quotients 6.4G: generate equivalent forms of fractions, decimals, and percents using real-world problems, including problems that involve money 6.4H: convert units within a measurement system, including the use of proportions and unit rates 6.5A: represent mathematical and real-world problems involving ratios and rates using scale factors, tables, graphs, and proportions 6.5B: solve real-world problems to find the whole given a part and the percent, to find the part given the whole and the percent, and to find the percent given the part and the whole, including the use of concrete and pictorial models 6.5C: use equivalent fractions, decimals, and percents to show equal parts of the same whole ELPS Learning Strategies 1A: use prior knowledge and experiences to understand meanings in English Listening 2C: learn new language structures, expressions, and basic and academic vocabulary heard during classroom instruction and interactions 2D: monitor understanding of spoken language during classroom instruction and interactions and seek clarification as needed 2I: demonstrate listening comprehension of increasingly complex spoken English by following directions, retelling or summarizing spoken messages, responding to questions and requests, collaborating with peers, and taking notes commensurate with content and grade-level needs Speaking 3C: speak using a variety of grammatical structures, sentence lengths, sentence types, and connecting words with increasing accuracy and ease as more English is acquired 3D: speak using grade-level content area vocabulary in context to internalize new English words and build academic language proficiency 3F: ask and give information ranging from using a very limited bank of high-frequency, high-need, concrete vocabulary, including key words and expressions needed for basic communication in academic and social contexts, to using abstract and content-based vocabulary during extended speaking assignments 3H: narrate, describe, and explain with increasing specificity and detail as more English is acquired Reading 4E: read linguistically accommodated content area material with a decreasing need for linguistic accommodations as more English is learned 4F: use visual and contextual support and support from peers and teachers to read grade-appropriate content area text, enhance and confirm understanding, and develop vocabulary, grasp of language structures, and background knowledge needed to comprehend increasingly challenging language 4G: demonstrate comprehension of increasingly complex English by participating in shared reading, retelling or summarizing material, responding to questions, and taking notes commensurate with content area and grade level needs 26

27 Vocabulary Cognitive Complexity Verbs: apply, give examples, generate, convert, represent, solve, use Academic Vocabulary by Standard: 6.4B: ratio, rate, proportional relationship, quantitative, qualitative 6.4C: attribute, multiplicative, part to part comparison, part to whole comparison, proportional relationship, quantities, ratio 6.4D: attribute, division, proportional relationship, quotient, rate, ratio, unit rate 6.4G: decimal, equivalent, fraction, percent 6.4H: customary measurement, measurement system, metric measurement, proportion, unit rate, units 6.5A: graph, proportional relationship, proportions, rate, ratio, scale factor, table 6.5B: part, percent, proportional relationships, whole 6.5C: decimal, equivalent, fraction, part, percent, whole Additional vocabulary: surveyed, randomly, discounted price, sale price, regular price Suggested Math Manipulatives Conversion Charts Foldables Strip Diagrams Essential Questions Describe a situation in which ratios describe quantities with the same attributes. Describe a situation in which rates describe quantities with different attributes. Describe how ratios can be used to make predictions. Given any metric or customary unit conversion, generate a table of values. How can fractional benchmarks be used to determine the approximate value of a percent? What is the relationship between percents, fractions, and decimals? How can you choose an appropriate method to make comparisons among quantities using ratios, percents, fractions, rates or decimals? Why are percents used in store sales rather than fractions or decimals? What methods can you use to estimate a 20% tip using mental math? 27

28 TEKS/Student Expectations 6.4B: apply qualitative and quantitative reasoning to solve prediction and comparison of real-world problems involving ratios and rates Bundle 4: Teacher Notes Instructional Implications Distractor Factors Supporting Readiness Standards In accordance with the standard, students will apply qualitative reasoning (Which is better?) and quantitative reasoning (Which is more/ less?) to solve ratio and rate problems from real-world contexts. These problems might include situations involving measurements, prices, miles per hour, number of pieces of candy per person, or cups per quart, etc. Instruction should have students solving a variety of prediction and comparison problems. Prediction problems: 3 out of 8 students prefer pepperoni pizza, predict how many of the 250 sixth grade students are likely to prefer pepperoni pizza Comparison problems: Two classes ordered pizza; the first class ordered pizza so every 3 students will have 2 pizzas; the second class ordered pizza so every 5 students will have 3 pizzas; determine if the first or second period class has more pizza for each student * Students may think of ratios as an additive relationship instead of a multiplicative relationship TEA Supporting Information The description of the proportional situations includes prediction in situations with missing values and comparisons that involve ratios and rates. Quantitative reasoning focuses on the relationships between and within equivalent ratios. When given two ratios a/b and e/f, qualitative reasoning involves considering a/b=c and e/f=g and how qualitative changes in a or b and e of f affect c and g and how these qualitative changes affect comparisons of c and g. For example, the ratio of lemon juice to water for Maria s lemonade is 3 T of lemon juice to 3 cups of water. The simplified c=1 describes how lemony her lemonade is. The ratio e/f=4/4 describes the ratio of lemon juice (4 T) to water (1 qt or 4 C) for Mark s lemonade. The simplified g=1 describes how lemony his lemonade is. If Maria s and Mark s lemonades have the same amount of 28

29 6.4C: give examples of ratios as multiplicative comparisons of two quantities describing the same attribute 6.4D: give examples of rates as the comparison by division of two quantities having different attributes, including rates as quotients This standard requires students to give examples of ratios that compare like units (same attributes). Both part to whole (i.e. ratio 4 girls in a class of 30 students) and part to part ratios (i.e. ratio 4 girls to 6 boys in a class) compare two measures of the same type. A multiplicative comparison of two quantities can be used to describe the same attribute (i.e. the part to part ratio of 4 girls to 6 boys may also be described as the number of boys in the class is 1.5 times as many the number of girls in the class). This standard requires students give examples of rates that compare unlink units (different attributes). A ratio that compares measures of two different types is termed a rate (i.e. miles pergallon, miles per hour, inches per foot, ounces per cup, etc.). Instruction should have students give examples of rates as comparison by division and include rates as quotients (i.e. cost of 2 dozen pencils is $7.20; this rate can be represented as $7.20/24 pencils of the quotient of = 0.30 which is the same as the rate $0.30/ 1 pencil). Instruction might include the use of a table for students to visualize the ratio between the two different types of measures (i.e. cost to number of pencils). Understanding how ratios are multiplicative comparisons of two quantities describing the same attribute will support the application of real-world problems involving ratios and rates. 6.4B: apply qualitative and quantitative reasoning to solve prediction and comparison of real-world problems involving ratios and rates Understanding how rates are a comparison by division of two quantities having different attributes will support the application of comparing and solving such real-world examples. 6.4B: apply qualitative and quantitative reasoning to solve prediction and comparison of real-world problems involving ratios and rates lemony flavor, what happens if Maria adds lemons? What if she adds lemons and water? This SE lays the groundwork for proportional reasoning elsewhere in grades 6 and 7. This SE specifies the comparison of the same attribute for two different objects, sets, or other quantities such as length, mass, etc. This SE specifies that the comparison of the different attributes may be for a single object, set, or situation. This SE may be used as a building block to unit rates elsewhere in grade 6 and the rate of change in grade 7. 29

30 6.4G: generate equivalent forms of fractions, decimals, and percents using real-world problems, including problems that involve money Students should express such comparisons as a unit rate (i.e. $0.30 per 1 pencil). In accordance to the standard, it is essential that students have a conceptual understanding of equivalent fractions, decimals, and percents (i.e. fractions, decimals, or percents are equivalent if they are representations for the same amount or quantity). Instruction should include the use of realworld problems (including problems that involve money) to generate equivalent forms of fractions, decimals, and percents. Using real-world problems, students can develop an understanding of equivalent fractions (i.e. if one dollar represents a whole, generate an equivalent decimal and fraction for an 8% sales tax: 8/100 or 2/25 or 0.08). It is important that instruction vary the type of representations to develop student fluidity in progressing among the different representations (i.e. given a percent generate an equivalent fractions and decimal; given a decimal generate an equivalent fraction and percent; given a fraction generate an equivalent decimal and percentage). Instruction should also include values greater than one whole * Students may not relate percent (being out of 100) to decimals (in the hundredths position) or fractions (x/100). Ideas related to percent have been grouped together under the Proportionality strand. When the SE is paired with 6.1A, the expectation is that students order numbers arising from mathematical and realworld context, icluding those involving money. 30

31 6.4H: convert units within a measurement system, including the use of proportions and unit rates (i.e. 3 4/5, 3.45, 345%). To reinforce equivalent fractions, decimals, and percents, the student can enter the different forms into a calculator and compare the equivalent values. In adherence to the TEKS and in conjunction with 6.4C/D, students should convert a variety of units for various forms of measurement (time, length, capacity, weight, etc.). Instruction should include a variety of conversion problems within the same measurement system (i.e. minutes to hours; feet to yard; gallons to quarts; ounces to pounds). With the use of proportions, students use knowledge of one ratio to determine a value in the other ratio (i.e. using proportional reasoning the student should be able to determine that 1 minute/ 60 seconds = 2 minutes/ 120 seconds since each unit of measure in the ratio 1 minute/ 60 seconds was doubled). As students become more adept at proportional reasoning and in conjunction with 6.3E/6.7D it is important to reference the multiplication identity property of one (i.e. since 1 minutes/ 60 secdonds x 1 = 1 minutes/ 60 seconds, then 1 minute/ 60 seconds x 2/2 = 2 minutes/ 60 seconds because 2/2 is equivalent to 1) when representing various proportions. This proportional reasoning can be applied to metric conversions * Students may use the wrong operation to convert from one unit to another incorrectly (i.e. dividing the number of feet by 12 inches when converting feet to inches). The focus is on the use of proportions, equivalent ratios, and unit rates. Multiple conversions may be used, such as converting cups to pints to quarts to gallons. Districts may decide to use this SE to introduce dimensional analysis. The measurement systems are the customary and metric systems. ( ) and customary conversions 31

32 ( ). Students should be able to use division to determine the unit rate (i.e. consider the relationship between the two units of measure, 15 feet/ 5 yards, determine the unit rate 15 5 = 3, and then use the unit rate 3 feet/ 1 yard, to calculate the number of feet equal in length to 10.5 yards, 6.5A: represent mathematical and realworld problems involving ratios and rates using scale factors, tables, graphs, and proportions ). Students will need to decide which method (i.e. proportions or unit rates) is the most efficient to convert units within a measurement system. In accordance with the standard, students will represent mathematical and real-world problems involving ratios and rates. Students will use different methods (i.e. scale factors, tables, graphs, and proportions) to represent the problems. Instruction should include one scenario where students use the different methods to solve the problem so students can compare the methods and decide which method was the most efficient method for the given problem. Through the use of scale factors (scale factor is a number a quantity is multiplied by) students can represent real-world problems (i.e. the scale legend on a map shows one inch = 80 miles, the distance from El Paso to Dallas on a map measures approximately 7.9 inches, determine the approximate number of miles from El Paso to Representing ratio and rates through the use of scale factors, tables, graphs, and proportions will be the foundation for students to be able to solve prediction and/ or comparison problems in the real world. 6.4B: apply qualitative and quantitative reasoning to solve prediction and comparison of real-world problems involving ratios and rates This SE focuses on proportional relationships. Specificity includes scale factors. Students are expected to graph these relationships. Ratios may be represented as percents to reinforce the skills under this knowledge and skill statement. 32

33 Dallas, 1 inch x 7.9 = 7.9 inches and 80 miles x 7.9 = 632 miles). Students will generate ratios that represent a proportional relationship (i.e. ). With tables, students use a multiplicative relationship to transform a given measure into another measure so proportional relationship exists. 6.5B: solve real-world problems to find the whole given a part and the percent, to find the part given the whole and the In conjunction with 6.4A, the students will use graphs in the format y = ax of real-world problems involving ratios that represent a proportional relationship. These graphs can be used to connect the idea of proportional relationships to algebraic interpretations. In adherence with the standard, instruction should include the use of concrete (i.e. folded strips of paper) and pictorial models (i.e. 10 x 10 grids, number lines, etc.) to solve real-world percent * Students may view the value of 20% as the whole number 20 instead of 0.20 or 20/100. This extends the ideas in 6.4E. Concrete and pictorial model include strip diagrams. 33

34 percent, and to find the percent given the part and the whole, including the use of concrete and pictorial models problems. In conjunction with 6.4F, the use of benchmark percents, multiples of these values, and the use of numbers compatible with benchmark percents will put the focus of the instruction on the relationships involved, not complex computational skills. Students will be asked to use these tools to calculate a whole given a part and the percent (i.e. a sale price of $84 represents 35% of the original price, determine the original price, ); calculate the part given the whole and percent (i.e. a discount of 35% off the original price of $240, determine the discount price, ), calculate the percent of a given part and whole (i.e. a sale price of $84 and an original price of $240, calculate the percentage of the sales price, The parts and the percents are less than the whole. For example, a student may determine the amount of tax for a given item. However, the students would not be expected to determine the pre-tax price of an item given the sales tax rate and the post-tax price. Additionally, students may be asked to determine both the amount of discount and the sales price. This SE builds to percent increase and percent decrease in 7.4D. 6.5C: use equivalent ). Students should be able to justify their answer choice through the lens of concrete and/or pictorial models (i.e. if the whole strip of paper represents the original price of $240 and the strip is divided into three equal parts representing 1/3 or 33 1/3% and 2/3 or 66 2/3%, then each third of the sentence strip represents approximately $80, 240 3). Students should be encouraged to employ a variety of strategies to solve percent problems. In accordance with this standard, students use fractions, decimals, This standard is setting the concrete understanding of The equivalent values should be used to 34

35 fractions, decimals, and percents to show equal parts of the same whole and percents that are equivalent to show equal parts of the same whole. Instruction might include the use of a 10x10 grid (i.e. one row of ten squares represents 10/100, 1/10, 0.1, 0.10, 10%), circle graphs (i.e. a circle divided into four equal parts with one part shaded represents ¼, 0.25, 25%), number lines (i.e. a number line divided into five equal parts with two out of five parts marked represents 2/5, 4/10, 0.4, 0.40, 40%). Students need to be able to justify the equivalence of each of their representations. how fractions, decimals, and percents that are related to the same whole are equivalent. Flexibility moving between fractions, decimals, and percents will support a student s ability to generate equivalent forms in order to solve problems. 6.4G generate equivalent forms of fractions, decimals, and percents using real-world problems, including problems that involve money. describe the same whole. The equivalent values may be greater than one. 35

What is an example of an expression where the use of parentheses changes the result of a computation? Why do we need a conventional order of operations? What is a process you could use to determine the value of the variable in the model of an equation? Is the process used to determine the value of a variable different for an inequality versus and equation? Given a solution, how can the solution be proven to true for a given equation? 37

38 TEKS/Student Expectations 6.7A: generate equivalent numerical expressions using order of operations, including whole number exponents and prime factorization 6.7B: distinguish between expressions and equations verbally, numerically, and algebraically Bundle 5: Teacher Notes Instructional Implications Distractor Factors Supporting Readiness Standards In accordance with this standard, students will use order of operations to generate equivalent expressions. Expressions should include the use of whole number exponents (i.e ^3 = 7 + (2x2x2) = = 15) and prime factorization (i.e. 56 = 2^3 x 7) to generate equivalent numerical expressions. In accordance to the standard, exponential representations are limited to whole numbers. For students to develop the concept of exponents, instruction should include ample opportunities for students to work with exponents as whole numbers so students understand that a whole number exponent is repeated multiplication of a number times itself. (i.e. 6 x 2^3 and 6x2x2x2 are equivalent numerical expressions and 123 and 6 x 2^3 are not equivalent numerical expressions). In accordance with the standard, students will distinguish between expressions and equations. It is important for students to recognize that all equations consist of equivalent expressions linked with an = sign. Instruction will incorporate different ways to distinguish between expressions and equations (i.e. verbally, numerically, and algebraically). Through verbal representations, students will use real world situations to convey the difference between an expression (i.e. * Students may just work problems from left to right instead of applying order of operations * Students may do addition before subtraction disregarding the order of the two operations in the expression * Students may do multiplication before division disregarding the order of the two operations in the expression * Students may multiply the base and exponent in the term 3^2 instead of 3 x 3 (i.e. 3^2=3x2=6 instead of 3^2 = 3x3=9) *Student may not understand that simplifying an expression does not change the value. Each step in order of operations yields an equivalent expression. Distinguishing between expressions and equations will support the understanding of how that applies to representing situations verbally, tabularly, graphically, and symbolically. 6.6C represent a given situation using verbal descriptions, tables, graphs, and equations in the form y=kx or y =x+b TEA Supporting Information Generate equivalent numerical expressions is synonymous to simplify. For example, l2-5l + 3= 3+3. Students are expected to understand that each step in the simplifying process generates and equivalent expression. Exponents may only be whole numbers, Bases, however, have no limitation. Students have previously been exposed to the terms expressions and equation. This student expectation makes the distinction explicit. Verbally, students are expected to explain that equations are sentences that state that two things are equal. An expression is a phrase that represents a single number. 38

39 6.7C: determine if two expressions are equivalent using concrete models, pictorial models, and algebraic representations Sandra earns $6 an hour for babysitting and babysits for 5 hours) and an equation (i.e. Sandra earns $6 an hour for babysitting; she babysits for 5 hours and earns $30). Through the lens of numerical representations, students will represent real-world situations with numeric expressions (i.e. 6 x 5) and numeric equations (i.e. 6 x 5 =30) to distinguish between the two terms. Through algebraic representation, students will represent real-world situations with algebraic expressions (i.e. 6x) and algebraic equations (i.e. 6x=30). Instruction should include side by side comparisons of expressions and equations using the three formats verbally, numerically, and algebraically. In accordance with the standard, students will use concrete models, pictorial models, and algebraic representations to determine if two expressions are equivalent (i.e. the expression 2 (x+3) is equivalent to the expression 2x+6). Instruction should include a variety of concrete models (i.e. algebra tiles, proportional color rods, grid paper, etc.) along with a variety of problems using pictorial models and algebraic representations. The use of concrete and pictorial models allows students to develop the mental images for expressions which they can use to apply to algebraic representations of expressions (i.e. using algebra tiles to model a rectangle with the dimensions 2 by (x +3), have students draw a picture of the model, and the write different equivalent expressions to represent the area of the model: 2x + 2(3), 2(x+3), or x + x ). Instruction This standard provides the concrete understanding of equivalent expressions. Applying the physical representation and manipulation of concrete objects to an abstract property of operation (i.e. inverse, identity, commutative, associative, distributive) will allow students to solve algebraic equations with a better understanding. 6.7D: generate equivalent expressions using the properties of operations: inverse, identity, commutative, associative, and distributive properties If an equation contains an unknown, it may be proven true or false by placing the unknown with a number. If an expression contains a variable, the expression may represent different numbers depending on the value assigned to the variable. An equation includes and equal sign. For this SE, expression may be entirely numeric or a mixture of numbers and one variable. The order of operations and properties of operations may be applied to determine if the two expressions are equivalent. This SE may include the combining of like terms. 39

40 should connect the concrete and/or pictorial models to the algebraic representation in order to move students from concrete to abstract learning. 6.7D: generate equivalent expressions using the properties of operations: inverse, identity, commutative, associative, and distributive properties Instruction should also include examples of expressions that are not equivalent (i.e. 2(x+3) is not equivalent to 2x+3 or 2 + x + 3). In conjunction with 6.7D, students will begin connecting their concrete understanding of equivalent expressions to properties of operations (i.e. the distributive property). In conjunction with 6.7C, as students begin representing equivalent expression with concrete objects and/or pictorial models, those actions can be associated with the properties of operations. A calculator may be used to support the development of the understanding of these various properties of operations (i.e. additive inverse property: students enter numerous examples using rational numbers such as , , 2/ /3; distributive property: students enter the expressions 2( ) and 2(3.6) + 2(8.4)) and compare the values of the expressions. Instruction should also include examples of expressions that are not equivalent (i.e. 2( ) is equivalent to 2(3.6) + 2(8.4), but is not equivalent to 2(3.6) or ). As students begin to verbalize and describe the various operational properties, instruction should then * Students may apply the commutative and associative property to subtraction and division * Students may have difficulty identifying the reciprocal as the multiplicative inverse of fractions * Students may confuse the taking of the opposite operation when applying the additive inverse property with the reciprocal when applying the multiplicative inverse For this SE, expression may be entirely numeric or a mixture of numbers and one variable. 40

41 translate from numerical to algebraic representations of the property (i.e. commutative property of multiplication may be described verbally as: the expression 5.8 * 3 is equivalent to the expression 3 * 5.8 because the same factors were used in each expression, the factors were just switched around the multiplication sign, each expression has a product of 17.4, so this may be written as 5.8 * 3 = 3 * 5.8 or a * b = b * a). 6.9A: write one-variable, one-step equations and inequalities to represent constraints or conditions within problems In accordance with the standard, students are limited to writing onevariable, one-step equations (i.e. 3x=6) and one-variable, one-step inequalities (3x<6). Instruction will model examples of equations identifying conditions (i.e. a hamburger costs $5 which is $1.30 more than a soda; 5 =x+1.30) and inequalities representing constraints (i.e. a repairman charges $45 an hour and wants to earn at least $438.75; 45x ). Emphasis needs to be placed on real-world examples of applying greater than/less than (i.e. the temperature must be warmer than 75 degrees for the air conditioner to turn on; x>75) vs. greater than or equal to/ less than or equal to (i.e. maximum capacity of a balloon is 300 people; x 300). Instruction should address how equations yield one solution (i.e. 3x = 6, x=2); whereas, inequalities yield several possible solutions (i.e. 3x<6, x<2). Writing an equation/inequality based on constraints or conditions within a problem will be foundation before students can solve such algebraic situations 6.10A: model and solve onevariable, one-step equations and inequalities that represent problems, including geometric concepts Problems may come from everyday life, society, and the workplace, including the application of mathematical concepts such as measurement. Equations and inequalities may include integers and positive rational number coefficients and constants. This SE connects to 6.10A and 6.10B. This SE is a building block for one-variable, two-step equations and inequalities with 7.10A. The SE includes inequalities. Constraints or conditions may be indicated by words such as minimum or maximum. Students may need to determine if the value in the solution is part of the solution set of not. 41

42 6.9B: represent solutions for one-variable, one-step equations and inequalities on number lines In accordance with the standard, students represent solutions for onevariable, one-step equations and inequalities on number lines (i.e. the solution for 2 = X+# on a number line: The solutions for 2x<9 on a number line: Representing solutions to equations and inequalities on a number line will allow for a more concrete understanding of abstract solutions. 6.10A: model and solve onevariable, one-step equations and inequalities that represent problems, including geometric concepts This SE is a building block for one-variable, two-step equations and inequalities in 7.10B. Students may need to determine if the value in the solution is part of the solution set of not. 6.9C: write corresponding real-world problems given one-variable, one-step equations or inequalities Instruction on inequalities should address the use of the open circle (value is not included in the set of possible solutions, x>2) and a filled circle (value is included in the set of possible solutions, x 2). In conjunction with 6.9A, as students begin representing solutions to realworld inequalities, it will be imperative for them to relate the appropriate use of an open circle (i.e. Sandra must make more than a 75 on her exam to make an A average for the semester; x>75) vs. filled circles (i.e. the room capacity of the cafeteria is no more than 300 people; x 300). In accordance with the standard, students write corresponding realworld problems given one-variable, one-step equations (i.e. 6x=48; John brought sodas for the picnic, how many six-packs of soda did he buy?) or inequalities (i.e. 6x 43; John needs at least 43 sodas for the picnic to serve everyone, what would be a reasonable number of six-packs of sodas he should buy?) Instruction should include problems involving rational numbers (decimals and fractions). Relating real-world problems to an equation or inequality develops a contextual understanding for such abstract representations. Applying real-world problem scenarios to an equation or inequality will allow the student to justify his/her answer more clearly. 6.10A: model and solve onevariable, one-step equations and inequalities that represent problems, including geometric concepts This SE is a building block for writing corresponding real-world problems given onevariable, two-step equations and inequalities in 7.10C. The SE includes inequalities. 42

43 6.10A: model and solve one-variable, one-step equations and inequalities that represent problems, including geometric concepts In accordance with the standard, students model and solve onevariable, one-step equations or inequalities. One-variable, one-step equations should include exposure to all four operations. Instruction should vary the position of the variable (i.e. x + 3 > 5; 3 + x > 5; 5 < x + 3). Students should associate the manipulation of concrete objects to the symbolic solving of the equation/ inequality (i.e. x + 3 = 5). In adherence to the standard, geometric concepts should also be applied to the representation and solving of one-step, one-variable problems (i.e. if the area of a rectangle is 56.5cm^2 and the length measures 5cm, what is the width of the rectangles? would be represented by the equation 5w=56.5). Number lines can be used to represent the solution of inequalities. * Students may disregard the equality/ inequality symbol when solving equations and only perform an operation on one side of the equation * Students may not change the direction of the inequality symbol when multiplying or dividing by a negative value * Students may focus on the direction of the inequality sign to determine its representation on the number line instead of relying on what the symbol is communicating (i.e. 2 > x; students will shade all values to the right of 2 on the number line since that is the directions the inequality is pointing * Students will ignore the inclusion or exclusion of solutions to inequalities and not apply it to a given point Equations and inequalities may include integers and positive rational number coefficients and constants. This SE is a building block for one-variable, two-step equations and inequalities with 7.11A as well as 7.11C and may include concepts developed in 6.8A and 4.7E as contexts. Geometric concepts may include complementary and supplementary angles. As this standard addresses both equations and inequalities, students must understand that equations yield one solution; whereas inequalities yield more than one solution. 43

44 6.10B: determine if the given value(s) make(s) one-variable, one-step equations or inequalities true In accordance with the standard, students determine if a given value makes an equation (i.e. substitute the value of -3 for x in the equation x + 4 =7 to determine if x=-3 will make a true statement: -3+4=1, since 1 7, -3 is not a solution for the equation) or inequality (i.e. substitute the value ¾ for x in the inequality 8x<6 to determine if x=3/4 will make a true statement: 8 * ¾ < 6, since 6<6 is not true, ¾ is not a solution for the inequality). As students become more comfortable with determining if a given value yields a true statement, students can begin applying this process to determine if their solution is correct when solving equations (see 6.10A). Determining if given value(s) make an equation or inequality true will be critical to accurately solving onevariable, one-step equations and inequalities. 6.10A: model and solve onevariable, one-step equations and inequalities that represent problems, including geometric concepts This SE makes explicit the meaning of a solution to an equation or an inequality. This SE is a building block for one-variable, two-step equations and inequalities in 7.11B. Students may need to determine if the value in the solution is part of the solution set or not. 44

45 Course: Grade 6 Math Bundle 6: Algebraic Relationships Dates: January 25 th February 10 th (13 days) TEKS 6.4A: compare two rules verbally, numerically, graphically, and symbolically in the form of y = ax or y = x + a in order to differentiate between additive and multiplicative relationships 6.6A: identify independent and dependent quantities from tables and graphs 6.6B: write an equation that represents the relationship between independent and dependent quantities from a table 6.6C: represent a given situation using verbal descriptions, tables, graphs, and equations in the form y = kx or y = x + b 6.11A: graph points in all four quadrants using ordered pairs of rational numbers ELPS Learning Strategies 1A: use prior knowledge and experiences to understand meanings in English Listening 2I: demonstrate listening comprehension of increasingly complex spoken English by following directions, retelling or summarizing spoken messages, responding to questions and requests, collaborating with peers, and taking notes commensurate with content and grade-level needs Speaking 3B: expand and internalize initial English vocabulary by learning and using high-frequency English words necessary for identifying and describing people, places, and objects, by retelling simple stories and basic information represented or supported by pictures, and by learning and using routine language needed for classroom communication 3E: share information in cooperative learning interactions Reading 4C: develop basic sight vocabulary, derive meaning of environmental print, and comprehend English vocabulary and language structures used routinely in written classroom materials 4F: use visual and contextual support and support from peers and teachers to read grade-appropriate content area text, enhance and confirm understanding, and develop vocabulary, grasp of language structures, and background knowledge needed to comprehend increasingly challenging language 45

46 Vocabulary Cognitive Complexity Verbs: compare, differentiate, identify, write, represent, graph Academic Vocabulary by Standard: 6.4A: additive relationship, coordinate plane, equation, linear, multiplicative relationship, ordered pair, origin, proportional relationship, x- axis, y-axis, y-intercept 6.6A: coordinate plane, dependent quantity, graph, horizontal axis, independent quantity, table, vertical axis 6.6B: dependent quantity, equation, independent quantity, relationship, table 6.6C: coordinates, dependent quantity, equation, graph, independent quantity, linear, ordered pair, relationship, table, verbal description 6.11A: coordinate plane, graph, ordered pair, origin, point, quadrant, rational numbers, x-axis (horizontal axis), x-intercept, y-axis (vertical axis), y-intercept Suggested Math Manipulatives Foldables Coordinate Plane Input-Output Tables Battleship Coordinate Game Essential Questions Given a rule, generate a table for five corresponding input and output values, and vice versa. Describe the difference between independent and dependent quantities. 46

47 TEKS/Student Expectations 6.4A: compare two rules verbally, numerically, graphically, and symbolically in the form of y = ax or y = x + a in order to differentiate between additive and multiplicative relationships Bundle 6: Teacher Notes Instructional Implications Distractor Factors Supporting Readiness Standards In accordance with the standard, students will compare two rules in the form y=ax and y =x+a in problem situations. Instruction will incorporate different representations of the rules (i.e. verbally, graphically, and symbolically). Through verbal representations, students will articulate the difference between additive (i.e. the same amount is added to a measure which results in a new measure) and multiplicative (i.e. the same amount is multiplied to a measure which results ina new measure) relationships. Through the symbolical representation, students will observe how a multiplicative pattern (i.e. y=ax) compares to an additive pattern (i.e. y=x+a). Through the lens of numerical representation, students need to observe patterns that may or may not be consecutive within a table. Students would describe the relationship between input value and the output value to ascertain what s my rul. Through the graphical representation, students will observe that graphs of both multiplicative and additive patterns are linear; however, graphs of multiplicative patterns contain the origin (0,0) while graphs of an additive pattern contains the point (0,a), a 0. When students recognize and understand the difference between additive and multiplicative approaches, they will begin to develop an understanding of proportional relationships. Identifying an additive or multiplicative pattern through the lens of verbal, numeric, graphical, or symbolic representation will support students in being able to associate an appropriate real-world situation. 6.6C: represent a given situation using verbal descriptions, tables, graphs, and equations in the form y = kx or y = x + b TEA Supporting Information The algebraic representations should be in the form y=ax or y = x+a. The SE 6.4A is a building block for 7.7A, 8.5B, and 8.5I. Students are expected to graph these relationships. Students are expected to compare two rules to differentiate between additive and multiplicative representations. This is a building block for work with proportional and nonproportional situations in grades 7 and 8. 47

48 6.6A: identify independent and dependent quantities from tables and graphs In accordance with the standard, students will use tables and graphs to identify the independent quantity and dependent quantity in an algebraic relationship. Instruction should include a variety of tables (i.e. horizontal and vertical tables) and graphs where students identify the independent and dependent quantities. Through the lens of a table, students should be able to identify the value of the dependent variable is reliant on the quantity of the independent variable. Through the lens of a graph, students should identify the independent variable is represented on the x-axis and the dependent values are represented on the y-axis. For a given problem, the table and graph may be shown side by side for students to identify the independent and dependent quantities and make the connection between the two representations. The students need to be able to identify the independent quantities from the table are represented along the horizontal axis on the graph and the dependent quantities from the table are represented along the vertical axis on the graph. Being able to identify the independent and dependent quantities will be critical in representing situations in table, graph, and equation. 6.6C: represent a given situation using verbal descriptions, tables, graphs, and equations in the form y = kx or y = x + b This SE extends 5.8C, which includes an inputoutput table, which implies independent and dependent quantities. The tables and graphs may be labeled with the related quantities. 48

49 6.6B: write an equation that represents the relationship between independent and dependent quantities from a table 6.6C: represent a given situation using verbal descriptions, tables, graphs, and equations in the form y = kx or y = x + b In conjunction with 6.6A, students will use tables to write equations that represent the relationship between the independent quantity and dependent quantity in an algebraic relationship. Instruction should include a variety of tables (i.e. horizontal and vertical tables) where the independent values are not consecutive. It is important students develop an understanding that a rule is a form of communication that describes the way the independent and dependent quantities are related. This rule applies to each row in the table and is written as an equation (i.e. the equation represents how the independent quantity affects the dependent quantity; the value of the dependent quantity is defined in terms of the independent quantity). Students should be able to relate their equation to the values within the table and/or graph. In conjunction with 6.6A/6.6B, students will use verbal descriptions, tables, graphs, and equations to represent both additive (i.e. y=x+b) and multiplicative relationships (i.e. y=kx). Through verbal descriptions, students will articulate the relationship between the independent and dependent quantities as it relates to the given situation (i.e. for every tricycle there * Students may want to symbolically represent a given situation based on the pattern between the independent quantities or the dependent quantities and not the independent to the dependent quantities (i.e. the number of wheels can be Relating the independent and dependent quantities from a table to establish an equation will be foundational to relating the information to an appropriate situation. 6.6C: represent a given situation using verbal descriptions, tables, graphs, and equations in the form y = kx or y = x + b The SE extends 5.8C with an equation from an input-output table. The linear relationships will be represented with a table of paired values. This SE builds on 6.4A and is a building block for 7.7A, 8.5B, and 8.5I. Students are expected to graph these relationships. The SE focuses on twovariable equations. Onevariable equations are the 49

50 are three times as many wheels). The use of tables organizes data and provides as means for students to look for patterns and develop a rul that describes the way the independent and dependent quantities are related (i.e. multiply the number of tricycles times 3 will yield the total number of wheels). The use of a process column identifying the rule can support students in representing the data using symbolic notation (i.e. t*3=w) represented as t+3 because the output column increases by three each time). * Students may not understand how the coordinates of an ordered pair communicates the information (i.e. (2,6) represents that for two tricycles there would be six wheels). *Students may not begin the number pattern at zero. subject of 6.9C. Through the use of graphs, students are able to visualize the relationship between the independent and dependent quantities. These graphical representations will allow students to observe that graphs of both multiplicative and additive patterns are linear; however, graphs of a multiplicative pattern contains the origin (0,0) while graphs of an additive pattern contains the point (0,a), a 0. It is important to note that although the data in the graph follows a linear path, the data is discrete (i.e. the dependent quantities are whole number values, 50

51 6.11A: graph points in all four quadrants using ordered pairs of rational numbers not fractional values); therefore, a solid line is not drawn through the points on the graph. A solid line is drawn through the points on the graph when the dependent quantities are continuous (i.e. the values can be fractional values). In accordance with the standard, students graph points in all four quadrants using ordered pairs (x,y). Instruction should include a variety of examples using rational numbers for the ordered pairs [i.e. (-3, ½). (5.3,3.5), (3.5,-3/5), (-4/5,-4/5)]. Instruction should begin with the point at which the two axes intersect to form a perpendicular line is identified as the origin (0,0). The origin is the starting point for the graphing of all the coordinates of an ordered pair. Instruction should relate coordinates of an ordered pair to the coordinate plane. The first number is referred to as the x-coordinate which will be located by moving parallel to the x- axis. The second number is referred to as the y-coordinate which will be located by moving parallel to the y- axis. Students should mathematically communicate their actions of locating a given point on a coordinate plane (i.e. relating the x-coordinate to the parallel movement along the x-axis; relating the y-coordinate to the parallel movement along the y-axis; with the movement beginning at the origin), not the use of a trick to finding location (i.e. rise over run). Instruction should include the identification of the four quadrants (i.e. Quadrant I, II, III, IV) and the types of ordered pairs that would be represented in each of the four quadrants (i.e. Quadrant II consists of x-values less than zero and * Students may change the order when plotting the coordinates of an ordered pair, (x,y) and plot the y-coordinate and then the x-coordinate. *Students may confuse the x- and y-axis. *Students may confuse the coordinates for points on the x-axis and the y- axis. *Students may not locate coordinates correctly given graphs of intervals other than one Students will graph ordered pairs of rational numbers. The SE 6.11 extends to graphing ordered pairs of rational numbers in all four quadrants from 5.8C. The quadrants may be numbered beginning with I, which includes positive x and y values (see 5.8C), and are numbered counterclockwise. 51

52 y-values greater than zero; x<0, y>0;etc.) Instruction should also include examples where 0 is one of the coordinates in the ordered pair and students need to understand when a point is located on the x-axis and a point is located on the y-axis [i.e. ordered pairs with the coordinates (x,0) are on the x-axis, and ordered pairs with the coordinates (0,y) are on the y- axis]. 52

53 Course: Grade 6 Math Bundle 7: Geometry and Measurement Dates: February 13 th - March 3 rd (14 days) TEKS 6.4H: convert units within a measurement system, including the use of proportions and unit rates 6.8A: extend previous knowledge of triangles and their properties to include the sum of angles of a triangle, the relationship between the lengths of sides and measures of angles in a triangle, and determining when three lengths form a triangle 6.8B: model area formulas for parallelograms, trapezoids, and triangles by decomposing and rearranging parts of these shapes 6.8C: write equations that represent problems related to the area of rectangles, parallelograms, trapezoids, and triangles and volume of right rectangular prisms where dimensions are positive rational numbers 6.8D: determine solutions for problems involving the area of rectangles, parallelograms, trapezoids, and triangles and volume of right rectangular prisms where dimensions are positive rational numbers ELPS Learning Strategies 1F: use accessible language and learn new and essential language in the process Listening 2C: learn new language structures, expressions, and basic and academic vocabulary heard during classroom instruction and interactions 2I: demonstrate listening comprehension of increasingly complex spoken English by following directions, retelling or summarizing spoken messages, responding to questions and requests, collaborating with peers, and taking notes commensurate with content and grade-level needs Speaking 3D: speak using grade-level content area vocabulary in context to internalize new English words and build academic language proficiency 3F: ask and give information ranging from using a very limited bank of high-frequency, high-need, concrete vocabulary, including key words and expressions needed for basic communication in academic and social contexts, to using abstract and content-based vocabulary during extended speaking assignments 3G: express opinions, ideas, and feelings ranging from communicating single words and short phrases to participating in extended discussions on a variety of social and grade-appropriate academic topics 3H: narrate, describe, and explain with increasing specificity and detail as more English is acquired Reading 4F: use visual and contextual support and support from peers and teachers to read grade-appropriate content area text, enhance and confirm understanding, and develop vocabulary, grasp of language structures, and background knowledge needed to comprehend increasingly challenging language 4G: demonstrate comprehension of increasingly complex English by participating in shared reading, retelling or summarizing material, responding to questions, and taking notes commensurate with content area and grade level needs 53

54 Vocabulary Cognitive Complexity Verbs: convert, extend, determine, model, decompose, rearrange, write Academic Vocabulary by Standard: 6.4H: customary measurement, measurement system, metric measurement, proportion, unit rate, units 6.8A: acute angle, adjacent angle, angle, degrees, exterior angle, interior angle, length, measure, measure of angle, obtuse angle, opposite angle, relationship, right angle, side, triangle, vertex, straight angle, congruent angle, vertical angles, supplementary angles, complementary angles, acute triangle, right triangle, obtuse triangle, scalene triangle, isosceles triangle, equilateral triangle 6.8B: area, formula, parallelogram, rectangle, trapezoid, triangle 6.8C: area, cubic units (cubic feet, cubic centimeters, etc.), dimensions, equation, parallelogram, positive rational numbers, rectangle, rectangular prism, square units (square feet, square centimeters, etc.), trapezoid, triangle, volume 6.8D: area, cubic units (cubic feet, cubic centimeters, etc.), dimensions, parallelogram, positive rational numbers, rectangle, rectangular prism, solution, square units (square feet, square centimeters, etc.), trapezoid, triangle, volume Suggested Math Manipulatives STAAR Reference Chart Graph Paper Notecards Foldables Essential Questions In what ways can a triangle be classified based on the combination of the sides and angles? How can the area formulas for a parallelogram and trapezoid different? Why? Describe the process needed to solve the volume of a cereal box. 54

55 Bundle 7: Teacher Notes TEKS/Student Expectations 6.4H: convert units within a measurement system, including the use of proportions and unit rates Instructional Implications In adherence to the TEKS and in conjunction with 6.4C/D, students should convert a variety of units for various forms of measurement (time, length, capacity, weight, etc.). Instruction should include a variety of conversion problems within the same measurement system (i.e. minutes to hours; feet to yard; gallons to quarts; ounces to pounds). With the use of proportions, students use knowledge of one ratio to determine a value in the other ratio (i.e. using proportional reasoning the student should be able to determine that 1 minute/ 60 seconds = 2 minutes/ 120 seconds since each unit of measure in the ratio 1 minute/ 60 seconds was doubled). As students become more adept at proportional reasoning and in conjunction with 6.3E/6.7D it is important to reference the multiplication identity property of one (i.e. since 1 minutes/ 60 secdonds x 1 = 1 minutes/ 60 seconds, then 1 minute/ 60 seconds x 2/2 = 2 minutes/ 60 seconds Distractor Factors * Students may use the wrong operation to convert from one unit to another incorrectly (i.e. dividing the number of feet by 12 inches when converting feet to inches). Supporting Readiness Standards TEA Supporting Information The focus is on the use of proportions, equivalent ratios, and unit rates. Multiple conversions may be used, such as converting cups to pints to quarts to gallons. Districts may decide to use this SE to introduce dimensional analysis. The measurement systems are the customary and metric systems. 55

56 because 2/2 is equivalent to 1) when representing various proportions. This proportional reasoning can be applied to metric conversions ( ) and customary conversions ( ). Students should be able to use division to determine the unit rate (i.e. consider the relationship between the two units of measure, 15 feet/ 5 yards, determine the unit rate 15 5 = 3, and then use the unit rate 3 feet/ 1 yard, to calculate the number of feet equal in length to 10.5 yards, 6.8A: extend previous knowledge of triangles and their properties to include the sum of angles of a triangle, the relationship between the lengths of sides and measures of angles in a triangle, and determining when three lengths form a triangle ). Students will need to decide which method (i.e. proportions or unit rates) is the most efficient to convert units within a measurement system. In adherence with the standard, students will build on their knowledge of triangles to develop additional properties (i.e. sum of angles of a triangle, relationship between lengths of sides and measure of angles, three lengths form a triangle). Instruction should include examples where students model the properties such In determining the area of a triangle, it is possible that the measure of angles would be given but not all of the side lengths/ height would be given. Therefore, students would have to apply the relationship between the lengths of sides and measures of angles in a triangle to determine the missing length. Students may be expected to write and solve one-step equations. 56

57 as the sum of angles of a triangles (i.e. students cut out three congruent triangles and label the corresponding angles A, B, and C; arrange the vertices of the three triangles along a straight line) to model the sum of the interior angles form a 180 degree angle. 6.8D: determine solutions for problems involving the area of rectangle s, parallelograms, trapezoids, and triangles and volume of right rectangular prisms where dimensions are positive rational numbers To establish the relationship between lengths of the sides and measure of angles, students may use physical models such as strips of paper attached with brads at the vertices (i.e. measure the sides and angles in the triangle: the longest side of a triangle is opposite the angle with the greatest measure, or the shortest side of a triangle is opposite the angle with the least measure). To determine when three lengths form a triangle, strips of paper attached with brads at the vertices may be used to form a triangle and then unattached to compare the two sides of the triangles with the third side (i.e. the 57

58 sum of the lengths of any two sides in a triangle are greater than the length of the third side). 6.8B: model area formulas for parallelograms, trapezoids, and triangles by decomposing and rearranging parts of these shapes In adherence with the standard, students will model area formulas for parallelograms, trapezoids, and triangles. Instruction should include experiences where students decompose these shapes and rearrange the parts to form a new shape whose area formula can be associated to the decomposed shape s area formula (i.e. decompose a parallelogram and rearrange the parts to form a rectangle and connect the area formula for a rectangle to the area formula for a parallelogram). This standard provides the concrete experience of being able to physically manipulate areas of various shapes in order to develop formulas. This foundational understanding will allow students to better apply the use of various formulas in problem situations. 6.8D: determine solutions for problems involving the area of rectangle s, parallelograms, trapezoids, and triangles and volume of right rectangular prisms where dimensions are positive rational numbers Specificity is included regarding the development of formulas. Three possible techniques that model the area formula for a trapezoid are shown below. I. Use two congruent trapezoids to fom a parallelogram. This parallelogram has area of (b 1 +b 2 )h, so the area of one trapezoid would be ½(b 1 + b 2 )h. II. Divide the trapezoid with a line segment parallel to both bases and 58

59 halfway between each. Rotate one of these pieces to form a parallelogram with a length of b 1 + b 2 and a width of ½ h. As such the area of the parallelogram and hence the trapezoid would be ½(b 1 + b 2 )h. This process should be repeated for trapezoids and triangles (i.e. decompose each shape and rearrange the parts to form a parallelogram and connect the area formula for a parallelogram to the area formula for a trapezoid or triangle). III. Divide the trapezoid using a diagonal to form two triangles. The area of one triangle would be ½ b 1 h + ½ b 2 h = ½ (b 1 + b 2 )h. 6.8C: write equations that represent problems related to the area of rectangles, parallelograms, trapezoids, and triangles and volume of right rectangular In conjunction with 6.8B, instruction should move students from the concrete understanding of decomposing/ rearranging figures to represent area to the abstract representation In conjunction with 6.8B, as students are physically manipulating various shapes to develop area formulas, those actions need to apply to an abstract representation to yield an equation. Students Other techniques may exist. When this SE is paired with 6.1D and 6.1G, students may use tables to generate equations as appropriate to the problem. 59

60 prisms where dimensions are positive rational numbers 6.8D: determine solutions for problems involving the area of rectangles, parallelograms, trapezoids, and triangles and volume of right rectangular prisms where dimensions are positive rational numbers of its formula. In adherence to the standard, students will write equations and represent problems related to the area of shapes (i.e. rectangles, parallelograms, trapezoids, and triangles) and limits the study of volume to just right rectangular prisms. Instruction should include equations where dimensions are positive rational numbers (i.e. decimals and fractions). Students should be e encouraged to represent their equations or volume and area in more than one way (i.e. given the area of a triangle is 45 square meters and the length of the shortest side is 2.5 units, what is the height of the triangle; 45 = ½(2.5)(h); 2.5h 2 = 45; 45 = 2.5/2xh). In conjunction with 6.8B/C, instruction will move from the concrete development of the various area (i.e. rectangles, parallelograms, trapezoids, and triangles) and volume (right rectangular prisms) formulas to applying those formulas to solve problems. As outlined by the standard, problems should include positive rational numbers (decimals and fractions). Instruction should vary the context of * Students may confuse the concepts of perimeter, area, and volume * When determining the area/volume of a square/cube or volume of a cube, students may forget that the side lengths must be equal * Students may not correctly label the units of measure (i.e. length in units; area in square units; and volume in cubic units). *Students may not relate how the formula for area of a deriving the formula through concrete experiences will allow them to better apply and manipulate such equations when solving real-world problems. 6.8D: determine solutions for problems involving the area of rectangle s, parallelograms, trapezoids, and triangles and volume of right rectangular prisms where dimensions are positive rational numbers The dimensions may be positive rational numbers. Dimensions may be positive rational numbers. 60

63 Vocabulary Cognitive Complexity Verbs: represent, use, summarize, interpret, distinguish Academic Vocabulary by Standard: 6.12A: box plot (box and whiskers), dot plot, histogram, numeric data, stem-and-leaf plot 6.12C: center, interquartile range (IQR), mean, measures of center, measures of spread, median, numeric data, range, shape of the data distribution, spread, asymmetrical, symmetrical 6.12D: categorical data, data distribution, frequency, graphical summary, mode, numerical summary, percent bar graph, percent of values (percentage), relative frequency table 6.13A: box plot (box and whiskers), data distribution, dot plot, histogram, interquartile range (IQR), mean, measures of center, measures of spread, median, mode, numeric data, range, skew, stem-and-leaf plot, symmetrical 6.13B: data, variability Suggested Math Manipulatives Graphs Charts Foldables Essential Questions How is it possible for two sets of data to consist of different numbers but have the same mean, the same mode, and the same median? What is the effect of an outlier on a measure of central tendency? How does displaying data in tables or graphs help you identify patterns or properties of a distribution? What factors help to determine which measure of central tendency is the better representation for a given situation? Which type of graph is best used to represent a set of data? 63

64 TEKS/Student Expectations 6.12A: represent numeric data graphically, including dot plots, stem-and-leaf plots, histograms, and box plots 6.12B: use the graphical representation of numeric data to describe the Bundle 8: Teacher Notes Instructional Implications Distractor Factors Supporting Readiness Standards In adherence to the standard, the student will represent data graphically to include dot plots, stemand-leaf plots and box plots. The emphasis of instruction should be on helping students understand that all graphs convey information but different types of graphs highlight different features of the data (i.e. dot plots provide a graphic display used to compare frequency counts within groups; stem-and-leaf plots provide an efficient method of ordering data, and individual elements of data can be identified; histograms display the frequency of data in consecutive equal intervals along a numeric scale, the adjoining bars are connected; box plots display the median and information about the range and distribution of the data). It is important to present situations that include a real context and have students decide which graph(s) would be best for the given situation. Students should understand graphs convey factual information and also provide opportunities to make inferences that are not directly observed in the graph (i.e. what message may have been intended when viewing the graph). Students should represent the same numeric data using several graphs and then select which graph to use based on the intended audience and purpose. Representing student collected data graphically will allow students the opportunity to personalize the activity allowing them to make more sense of the data and summarize more appropriately. 6.13A: interpret numeric data summarized in dot plots, stem-and-leaf plots, histograms, and box plot TEA Supporting Information Students will represent data using stem-and-leaf plots. When 6.12A is paired with the mathematical process standards, students are expected to select and use an appropriate representation to communicate and justify mathematical relationships. Representing and drawing conclusions with data, which includes interpreting data, are located in the following grades: Line plots (renamed dot plots): grades 3,4,5 Stem-and-leaf plots: grades 4 and 5 Frequency tables: grades 3,4,5 Bar graphs: grades 2,3,5 Scatterplots: grade 5 The use of histograms and box plots begins in grade 6. While students will continue to describe the center (median and 64

65 center, spread, and shape of the data distribution mean) and spread (range), they will do so based on a graphical representation of numeric data rather than from a list of numeric data. Students are expected to describe the shape (affected by mean, median, mode, and range) based on a graphical representation. 6.12C: summarize numeric data with numerical summaries, including the mean and median (measures of center) and the range and interquartile range (IQR) (measures of spread), and use these summaries to describe the center, spread, and shape of the data distribution In conjunction with 6.12A/B, as the students begin representing numeric data graphically they will begin to summarize numeric data with numerical summaries (i.e. use the measures of center, mean and median, such that mean- a central balance point computed by adding all the number in the set of data and dividing the sum by the number of elements added; median- middle value in an ordered set of data such that 50% of the data is below and 50% of the data is above the middle value; use the measures of spread, range and interquartile range- such that: range- distance between highest and lowest data values; interquartile range- the difference between quartile 3, median of upper 50% of data, and quartile 1, median of lower 50% of data). Instruction should provide ample experiences for students to use these summaries to * Students may not put the data set in order when summarizing the median * Students may not count a value of 0 as part of the data set when summarizing the mean * Students may count a value that appears repeatedly in a data set only once when summarizing the mean Some descriptive words include, but are not limited to, outlier, symmetrical, clustered, skewed, and peak. The SE 6.12C focuses on numeric data and its related measures: mean, median, range, and interquartile ranges. An outlier does not describe the numerical summary, although it may alter the relationship between the mean and median as well as the relationship between the range and IQR. 65

66 6.12D: summarize categorical data with numerical and graphical summaries, including the mode, the percent of values in each category (relative frequency table), and the percent bar graph, and use these summaries to describe the data distribution describe the center, spread, and shape of the data distribution (i.e. a single representation such as the mean or median gives a snapshot of the population, but does not tell anything about the spread or shape of the data distribution which can lead to erroneous conclusions; whereas summaries including measures of center, the range, and measures of spread provide a more complete picture of the population). Instruction should also include summarizing numeric data when changes are made to a data set and the effects these changes may have on the mean, median, range, and interquartile range (i.e. the original data set may be 4, 6, 9, 10,15 and the data set is changed to 4, 6,9, 10, 40, compare the numerical summaries of the two sets of data). Through the lens of the data being represented on a dot plot, stem-andleaf plot, histogram, or box plots, students can describe the shape of the data as it related to the given situation. In adherence with the standard, the student will summarize categorical data (i.e. data that is not numerical, but categories such as favorite television show, where the frequency of each category would be represented as the height of a bar in a bar graph) with numerical and graphical summaries. Included in these summaries will be the mode (i.e. the category that occurred the most, not the frequency of the category), the percent values in each category (i.e. percentages calculated using a relative frequency table, divide the frequency for each * Students may think of data (response to a question) as the same as frequency (the number of times each response occurred). * Students may not calculate the percent values correctly *Students may not realize the percent values for each category must total 100% The SE 6.12D focuses on categorical data and its related measures: mode and relative frequencies. The focus is on the percent bar graph instead of the circle graph. This connects the use of strip diagrams to represent and solve problems related to percents with the relative frequency table. 66

67 category by the total number surveyed), and the percent bar graph (i.e. the frequency of data where 6 th grade girls and boys indicated their favorite television show is displayed using percentages of the frequency of the data). The table and graph below display the frequency (i.e. count) and percentage of data (i.e. favorite television show) gathered in a survey about 6 th grade boys and girls favorite television show. Categories can be numerical and are determined by context. For example, when measuring time, months are numeric. However, when considering how many times something occurs in each month, such as doctor visits, months may be categorical. 6.13A: interpret numeric data summarized in dot plots, stem-and-leaf plots, histograms, and box plots The purpose of the graphical summary is to describe the data distribution. In conjunction wth 6.12A, as students represent data on a dot plot, stemand-leaf plot, histogram, and box plots, instruction will extend to the interpretation of numeric data summarized in the graphs. In conjunction with 6.12B/C, instruction should include a variety of these graphs and allow students to shift from the visual image of the data (graph) to the numeric data summarized in the graphs by measures of center (i.e. median, mean, mode), and measures of spread (i.e. range and interquartile range). By describing numeric data * Students may not put numeric data in order when calculating the median. * Students may not count 0 as a part of the numeric data when calculating the mean. Representing and drawing conclusions with data, which includes interpreting data, is located in the following grades: Line plots (renamed dot plots): grades 3,4,5 Stem-and-leaf plots: grades 4 and 5 Frequency tables: grades 3,4,5 Bar graphs: grades 2,3,5 Scatterplots: grade 5 The use of histograms 67
