 Topics and performances are logical over time  Based on learning progressions research on how students learn  Reflect hierarchical nature of the content  Evolve from particulars to deeper structures 4 © 2011 California County Superintendents Educational Services Association Mathematics General Overview

 Define what students should understand and be able to do in their study of mathematics ◦ Is the ability to justify appropriate to student’s math maturity ◦ Understanding and procedural skill are equally important and can be assessed using tasks of sufficient richness  Are internationally benchmarked ◦ Reflect rigor, focus and coherence of standards in top-performing countries 5 © 2011 California County Superintendents Educational Services Association Mathematics General Overview

 Do: ◦ Set grade-level standards K-8 ◦ Identify standards for Algebra 1 ◦ Provide conceptual cluster standards in high school ◦ Provide clear signposts along the way toward the goal of college and career readiness for all students 6 © 2011 California County Superintendents Educational Services Association Mathematics General Overview

 Do not: ◦ Define intervention methods or materials ◦ Define the full range of supports for English learners, students with special needs and students who are well above or below grade level expectations ◦ Dictate curriculum or teaching methods 7 © 2011 California County Superintendents Educational Services Association Mathematics General Overview

GradeCalifornia StandardCommon Core FifthUnderstand the concept of multiplication and division of fractions. Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication to multiply a fraction or whole number by a fraction. Apply and extend previous understandings of division to divide unit fractions by whole numbers and whole numbers by unit fractions. (A unit fraction is one with a numerator of 1 and the denominator is a positive integer) SixthInterpret and use ratios in different contexts (e.g., batting averages, miles per hour) to show the relative sizes of two quantities, using appropriate notations ( a/b, a to b, a:b ). Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities. SeventhUse variables and appropriate operations to write an expression, an equation, an inequality, or a system of equations or inequalities that represents a verbal description (e.g., three is less than a number, half as large as area A). Use variables to represent quantities in real- world and mathematical problems and construct simple equations and inequalities to solve problems about the quantities. 11 © 2011 California County Superintendents Educational Services Association Mathematics General Overview

17 Grade 6 Overview Ratios and Proportional Relationships Understand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems. The Number System Apply and extend previous understandings of Multiplication and division to divide fractions by fractions. Compute fluently with multi-digit numbers and find common factors and multiples. Apply and extend previous understandings of numbers to The system of rational numbers. Expressions and Equations Apply and extend previous understandings of arithmetic to algebraic expressions. Reason about and solve one-variable equations and inequalities. Represent and analyze quantitative relationships between dependent and independent variables. Geometry Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, surface area, and volume. Statistics and Probability Develop understanding of statistical variability. Summarize and describe distributions. Mathematical Practices 1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. 2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively. 3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. 4. Model with mathematics. 5. Use appropriate tools strategically. 6. Attend to precision. 7. Look for and make use of structure. 8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.

Reading the Standards 18 Standards-by grade level: Defines what students should understand and be able to do Clusters: Groups of related standards. Standards from different clusters may be closely related Domains: Larger groups of related standards. Standards from different domains may be closely related. Ratios and Proportional Relationships 6.RP Domain Understand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems. 1. Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities. For example, “The ratio of wings to beaks in the bird house at the zoo was 2:1, because for every 2 wings there was 1 beak.” “For every vote candidate A received, candidate C received nearly three votes.” 2. Understand the concept of a unit rate a/b associated with a ratio a:b with b ≠ 0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship. For example, “This recipe has a ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar, so there is 3/4 cup of flour for each cup of sugar.” “We paid $75 for 15 hamburgers, which is a rate of $5 per hamburger.”1 Standard CLUSTERCLUSTER
