In Unit
3 of Math 5, students will focus on the ways in which fractions, decimals, and
percents express a relationship between numbers and how operation strategies with fractions,
decimals, and percents are similar to those used with whole numbers. Students
will be able to
·
read, write,
and represent interchangeably simple fractions, decimals, and percents using
symbols, words, and models.
·
compare and
order fractions in equivalent forms, including improper fractions and mixed
numbers with like and unlike denominators.
·
compare and
order decimals to the thousandths place and describe them using place value
concepts.
·
use models
and pictures to illustrate multiplying a whole number by a decimal number.
·
add and
subtract fractions, mixed numbers, and decimals.
·
multiply and
divide decimals by whole numbers.
·
apply a
variety of strategies to solve problems with fractions, decimals, and percents.
·
use
estimation to solve problems with fractions and decimals.
·
compute
percentages of 10, 20, 25, 50, and 100 percent of a number.
·
compute with
whole numbers.
*Challenge
·
add,
subtract, multiply and divide with decimals and fractions, including mixed
numbers, expressing answers in simplest form.
·
determine
ratios, rates, and unit rates in the context of a problem.
·
determine
equivalent ratios, decimals, and percents.
·
evaluate
simple algebraic expressions and simple formulas, including area, perimeter,
and distance.
·
compare,
order, and describe rational numbers in equivalent forms.
