CCGPS STANdards - 5th Grade
CCGPS standards addressed in this lesson sequence include:
Mathematics
Standards of Mathematical Practice Reason abstractly and quantitatively Model with Mathematics Use appropriate tools strategically Number and Operation in Base 10 Understand the place value system. 1. Recognize that in a multi-digit number, a digit in one place represents 10 times as much as it represents in the place to its right and 1/10 of what it represents in the place to its left. 2. Explain patterns in the number of zeros of the product when multiplying a number by powers of 10, and explain patterns in the placement of the decimal point when a decimal is multiplied or divided by a power of 10. Use whole-number exponents to denote powers of 10. 4. Use place value understanding to round decimals to any place. Measurement and Data Convert like measurement units within a given measurement system. 1. Convert among different-sized standard measurement units within a given measurement system (e.g., convert 5 cm to 0.05 m), and use these conversions in solving multi-step, real world problems. Geometry Geometric measurement: understand concepts of volume and relate volume to multiplication and to addition. 3. Recognize volume as an attribute of solid figures and understand concepts of volume measurement. 5. Relate volume to the operations of multiplication and addition and solve real world and mathematical problems involving volume. b. Apply the formulas V = l × w × h and V = b × h for rectangular prisms to find volumes of right rectangular prisms with wholenumber edge lengths in the context of solving real world and mathematical problems. |
Science
Habits of the Mind Students will have the computation and estimation skills necessary for analyzing data and following scientific explanations. a. Add, subtract, multiply, and divide whole numbers mentally, on paper, and with a calculator. b. Use fractions and decimals, and translate between decimals and commonly encountered fractions – halves, thirds, fourths, fifths, tenths, and hundredths (but not sixths, sevenths, and so on) – in scientific calculations. Students will use tools and instruments for observing, measuring, and manipulating objects in scientific activities. c. Use computers, cameras and recording devices for capturing information. Language Arts Draw on information from multiple print or digital sources, demonstrating the ability to locate an answer to a question quickly or to solve a problem efficiently |
