3. Points to Consider The standards not the textbook are the guide to follow Be cognizant of the amount of review being done at the beginning of the year – students need to engage in grade level mathematics as soon as possible Instructional Planning Model

4. Middle School Example Geometry Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, surface area, and volume. 6.G.1 Find the area of right triangles, other triangles, special quadrilaterals, and polygons by composing into rectangles or decomposing into triangles and other shapes; apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems. 6.G.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. Apply these techniques in the context of solving real- world and mathematical problems. The Number System Apply and extend previous understandings of numbers to the system 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.

5. Related 2003 SCoS Objectives 2.02 Solve problems involving perimeter/circumference and area of plane figures. 3.04 Solve problems involving geometric figures in the coordinate plane.

6. How are these CCSS different from the 2003 Standard Course of Study? 6.G.1 specifies area be found by composing into rectangles or decomposing into triangles or other shapes. Circumference is not included in the 6 th grade CCSS. Perimeter is in elementary. 6.G.3 builds on the work from 6.NS.8 using the length of polygon sides drawn in the coordinate plane to solve problem. The graphing of points in the coordinate plane in 6.NS.8 is not specifically mentioned in the 2003 standards. The use of coordinates and absolute value to find horizontal and vertical distances is new.
