Enduring Understandings
- important ideas
that students should carry with them years beyond the instruction received
this year.
-
Numbers can be represented, ordered, and communicated in many different
forms.
-
Numbers have different characteristics.
-
Numbers have properties.
-
Solutions must be reasonable.
-
Order
is important.
-
Computation is a vital mathematical tool.
-
There
are different ways of estimating.
-
Computation and reasoning are vital mathematical tools.
Essential Questions - most important
“big picture” questions students should be able to answer after completing
learning activities.
-
How do you
demonstrate equivalent numbers using various forms?
-
How do you compare and
order a set of numbers that are expressed in different ways?
-
How are characteristics
of numbers and number concepts identified and used?
-
How are properties of
numbers like the rules of a game?
-
When is the "correct"
answer not the best solution?
-
How is the order of
operations similar to following the rules of a game?
-
How do you select,
apply, and explain the strategies chosen to solve a problem?
-
How do you decide and
justify your problem solving technique?
-
How do you solve
problems using rational numbers and know your answer is reasonable?

Standards and E-Skills
Standard 1 (Number Sense) Students develop number sense and use numbers and
number relationships in problem solving situations and communicate the
reasoning in solving these problems.
1.2 Compare and
order integers, fractions, decimals, and percents (include a number line
also)
1.1
Simplify expressions with exponents.
Standard 6 (Computation) Students link concepts and procedures as they
develop and use computational techniques, including estimation, mental
arithmetic, paper-and-pencil, calculators, and computers, in problem-solving
situations and communicate the reasoning involved in solving these problems.
6.2 Add, Subtract, Multiply, and Divide Integers
6.4 Compute to solve
problems with fractions, decimals, percents, and integers. Check for
reasonable answers.
6.2 Order of
Operations with Integers
