- design, collect, model, and analyze data distributions to answer statistical questions and solve relevant, mathematical problems
- solve a variety of problems involving integers; model rational numbers on a number line to describe problems presented in relevant, mathematical situations
- solve a variety of contextual problems involving ratios, unit rates, equivalent ratios, percentages, and conversions within measurement systems using proportional reasoning
B - Geometric & Spatial Reasoning
- solve relevant, mathematical problems involving area of polygons, surface area of 3-D figures, and volume of right rectangular prisms
C - Patterning & Algebraic Reasoning
- identify, write, evaluate, and interpret numerical and algebraic expressions as mathematical models to explain relevant, mathematical problems
- write and solve one-step equations and inequalities to explain authentic, realistic scenarios
- graph rational numbers as points on the coordinate plane to represent and solve contextual, mathematical problems; draw polygons using the coordinates for their vertices and find the length of a side of a polygon
