3. Find Gizmos by Academic Standard
A Gizmo was selected using the “Browse For Gizmos – Gizmos by Academic Standard” feature on ExploreLearning.com

4. Gizmo: Rotations, Reflections, and Translations
GRADE 6 MAFS.6.G.1.3 Draw polygons in the coordinate plane given coordinates for the vertices; use coordinates to find the length of a side joining points with the same first coordinate or the same second coordinate.

5. Gizmo: Integers, Opposites,and Absolute Values
GRADE 6 MAFS.6.NS.3.6c Find and position integers and other rational numbers on a horizontal or vertical number line diagram; find and position pairs of integers and other rational numbers on a coordinate plane.

6. Gizmo: Percent of Change
GRADE 7 MAFS.7.RP.1.3 Use proportional relationships to solve multistep ratio and percent problems. Examples: simple interest, tax, markups and markdowns, gratuities and commissions, fees, percent increase and decrease, percent error.

7. Gizmo: Independent and Dependent Events
GRADE 7 MAFS.7.SP.3.8: Find probabilities of compound events using organized lists, tables, tree diagrams, and simulation.

8. Gizmo: Solving Linear Systems (Slope-Intercept Form)
GRADE 8 MAFS.8.EE.3.8c Solve real-world and mathematical problems leading to two linear equations in two variables. For example, given coordinates for two pairs of points, determine whether the line through the first pair of points intersects the line through the second pair.

9. Gizmo: Trends in Scatter Plots
GRADE 8 MAFS.8.SP.1.1: Construct and interpret scatter plots for bivariate measurement data to investigate patterns of association between two quantities. Describe patterns such as clustering, outliers, positive or negative association, linear association, and nonlinear association.

10. Gizmo: Slope-Intercept Form of a Line - Activity B
GRADE 8 MAFS.8.EE.2 Understand the connections between proportional relationships, lines, and linear equations.
