Math Standards
Math-Ms. R. Davis & Mrs. S. J. Mason
6.RP.1 :Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities.
6.RP.2 Understand the concept of a unit rate a/b associated with a ratio a:b with b z 0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship.
6.RP.3 Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems
6. NS.1 TLW: Interpret and compute quotients of fractions, and solve word problems involving division of fractions by fractions
6.NS.2 The learner will fluently divide multi-digit numbers using the standard algorithm
6.NS.3: Fluently add, subtract, multiply, and divide multi-digit decimals using the standard algorithm for each operation.
NS.4: Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers and the least common multiple of two whole numbers. Use the . distributive property to express a sum of two whole numbers 1-100 with a common factor as a multiple of a sum of two whole numbers with no common factor. .
6.NS. 5 - Understand that positive and negative numbers are used together to describe quantities having opposite directions or values, use positive and negative numbers to represent quantities in real-world contexts, explaining the meaning of 0 in each situation.
6.NS.6 Understand a rational number as a point on the number line. Extend number line diagrams and coordinate axes familiar from previous grades to represent points on the line and in the plane with negative number coordinates.
NS.7 Understand ordering and absolute value of rational numbers.
6.NS.8 Solve real-world and mathematical problems by graphing points in all four quadrants of the coordinate plane. Include use of coordinates and absolute value to find distances between points with the same first coordinate or the same second coordinate.
6.NS.9 Apply and extend previous understanding of addition and subtraction to add and subtract
Integers; represent addition and subtraction on a horizontal or vertical number line diagram.

Second 9-weeks Standards 6.EE.1 Write and evaluate numerical expressions involving whole-number exponents. 6.EE.2 Write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers. a. Write expressions that record operations with numbers and with letters standing for numbers. For example, express the calculation “Subtract y from 5” as 5 – y. b. Identify parts of an expression using mathematical terms (sum, term, product, factor, quotient, coefficient); view one or more parts of an expression as a single entity. For example, describe the expression 2 (8 + 7) as a product of two factors; view (8 + 7) as both a single entity and a sum of two terms. c. Evaluate expressions at specific values of their variables. Include expressions that arise from formulas used in real-world problems. Perform arithmetic operations, including those involving whole-number exponents, in the conventional order when there are no parentheses to specify a particular order (Order of Operations). For example, use the formulas V = s3 and A = 6 s2 to find the volume and surface area of a cube with sides of length s = 1/2.
6.EE.4 Identify when two expressions are equivalent (i.e., when the two expressions name the same number regardless of which value is substituted into them). For example, the expressions y + y + y and 3y are equivalent because they name the same number regardless of which number y stands for.
6.EE.6 Use variables to represent numbers and write expressions when solving a real-world or mathematical problem; understand that a variable can represent an unknown number, or, depending on the purpose at hand, any number in a specified set.
6.EE.7 Solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations of the form x + p = q and px = q for cases in which p, q and x are all nonnegative rational numbers.
EE.9 Use variables to represent two quantities in a real-world problem that change in relationship to one another. x Write an equation to express one quantity, thought of as the dependent variable, in terms of the other quantity, thought of as the independent variable. x Analyze the relationship between the dependent and independent variables using graphs and tables, and relate these to the equation. For example, in a problem involving motion at constant speed, list and graph ordered pairs of distances and times, and write the equation d = 65t to represent the relationship between distance and time https://hssdk12.schoology.com/login?&school=2717455599
