Grade 6 Advanced Math Guide for GT

Overview

This overview provides only the highlights of the new learning that should take place at the sixth-grade level. The specific skills and subject matter that sixth graders should be taught in each of the five mathematical strands are set forth in the formal standards and indicators for these strands. To alert educators as to when the progression in learning should occur for students in this grade, specific language is used with certain indicators: 16 An indicator beginning with the phrase “Generate strategies” addresses a concept that is being formally introduced for the first time, and students must therefore be given experiences that foster conceptual understanding. 17 An indicator beginning with the phrase “Apply an algorithm,” “Apply a procedure,” “Apply procedures,” or “Apply formulas” addresses a concept that has been introduced in a previous grade: students should already have the conceptual understanding, and the goal must now be fluency. 18 An indicator beginning with the phrase “Apply strategies and formulas” or “Apply strategies and procedures” addresses a concept that is being formally introduced for the first time, yet the goal must nonetheless be that students progress to fluency.

Highlights of the new learning for grade-six students are  understanding the concepts of percentages and integers,  comparing rational numbers and percentages,  applying an algorithm to add and subtract fractions,  generating strategies to multiply and divide fractions and decimals,  understanding the concepts of exponents and powers of ten,  applying order of operations,  using inverse operations to solve one-step equations,  representing location of points in all four quadrants,  constructing two-dimensional shapes with rotational symmetry,  classifying shapes as similar,  identifying pairs of angles that are complementary or supplementary,  applying strategies and formulas to approximate circumference and area of a circle,  applying strategies and procedures to estimate and determine perimeters and areas of irregular shapes,  using proportions to determine unit rates,  using a scale to determine distance, and  applying procedures to calculate the probability of complementary events. GRADE 6 ADVANCED MATH GUIDE FOR GT Mathematical Processes

The mathematical processes provide the framework for teaching, learning, and assessing in mathematics at all grade levels. Instructional programs should be built around these processes.

Standard 6-1: The student will understand and utilize the mathematical processes of problem solving, reasoning and proof, communication, connections, and representation.

The indicators for this standard, which are appropriate for grades six though eight, are adapted from Principles and Standards for School Mathematics (NCTM 2000). Classroom application should be based on the standard and its indicators; the mathematical goals for the class; and the skills, needs, and understandings of the particular students.

Indicators 6-1.1 Generate and solve complex abstract problems that involve modeling physical, social, and/or mathematical phenomena. 6-1.2 Evaluate conjectures and pose follow-up questions to prove or disprove conjectures. 6-1.3 Use inductive and deductive reasoning to formulate mathematical arguments. 6-1.4 Understand equivalent symbolic expressions as distinct symbolic forms that represent the same relationship. 6-1.5 Generalize mathematical statements based on inductive and deductive reasoning. 6-1.6 Use correct and clearly written or spoken words, variables, and notations to communicate about significant mathematical tasks. 6-1.7 Generalize connections among a variety of representational forms and real-world situations. 6-1.8 Use standard and nonstandard representations to convey and support mathematical relationships.

Overview

This overview provides only the highlights of the new learning that should take place at the seventh-grade level. The specific skills and subject matter that seventh graders should be taught in each of the five mathematical strands are set forth in the formal standards and indicators for these strands. To alert educators as to when the progression in learning should occur for students in this grade, specific language is used with certain indicators: 22 An indicator beginning with the phrase “Generate strategies” addresses a concept that is being formally introduced for the first time, and students must therefore be given experiences that foster conceptual understanding. 23 An indicator beginning with the phrase “Apply an algorithm,” “Apply a procedure,” “Apply procedures,” or “Apply formulas” addresses a concept that has been introduced in a previous grade: students should already have the conceptual understanding, and the goal must now be fluency. 24 An indicator beginning with the phrase “Apply strategies and formulas” or “Apply strategies and procedures” addresses a concept that is being formally introduced for the first time, yet the goal must nonetheless be that students progress to fluency.

Highlights of the new learning for grade-eight students are  applying an algorithm to add, subtract, multiply, and divide integers;  understanding the concept of irrational numbers;  applying procedures to approximate square and cube roots;  applying procedures to solve multistep equations;  classifying relationships between two variables as either linear or nonlinear;  identifying the coordinates of the x- and y-intercepts of a linear equation;  understanding slope as a constant rate of change;  applying the Pythagorean theorem;  using ordered pairs, equations, intercepts, and intersections to locate points and lines in a coordinate plane;  applying a dilation on a square, rectangle, or right triangle in a coordinate plane and analyzing the effect;  applying strategies and formulas to determine volume of three-dimensional shapes;  using multistep unit analysis to convert between and with the U.S. Customary System and the metric system; and applying procedures to compute the odds of a given event.

Overview

The academic standards for the elementary algebra core area establish the process skills and core content for Algebra 1, Mathematics for the Technologies 1, and Mathematics for the Technologies 2, which should provide students with the mathematics skills and conceptual understanding necessary for them to further their mathematical education or to pursue mathematics-related technical careers. These standards will be the basis for the development of the items on the state-required end-of-course examination for Algebra 1 and Mathematics for the Technologies 2.

The content of the elementary algebra standards encompasses the real number system; operations involving exponents, matrices, and algebraic expressions; relations and functions; writing and solving linear equations; graphs and characteristics of linear equations; and quadratic relationships and functions. Teachers, schools, and districts should use the elementary algebra standards to make decisions concerning the structure and content of Algebra 1, Mathematics for the Technologies 1, and Mathematics for the Technologies 2. Content in these three courses may go beyond the elementary algebra standards.

All courses based on the academic standards for elementary algebra must include instruction using the mathematics process standards, allowing students to engage in problem solving, decision making, critical thinking, and applied learning. Educators must determine the extent to which such courses or individual classes may go beyond these standards. Such decisions will involve choices regarding additional content, activities, and learning strategies and will depend on the objectives of the particular courses or individual classes.

In all courses based on the elementary algebra standards, hand-held graphing calculators are required for instruction and assessment. Students should learn to use a variety of ways to represent data, to use a variety of mathematical tools such as graph paper, and to use technologies such as graphing calculators to solve problems.

Note: The term including appears in parenthetical statements in the high school mathematics indicators to introduce a list of specifics that are intended to clarify and focus the teaching and learning of the particular concept. That is, within these parenthetical including statements are specified the components of the indicator that are critical for the particular core area with regard both to the state assessments and to the management of time in the classroom. While instruction must focus on the entire indicator, educators must be certain to cover the components specified in the parenthetical including statements. HIGH SCHOOL CORE AREA Elementary Algebra
