MCC6.RP.1 Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities.

MCC6.RP.2 Understand the concept of a unit rate / associated with a ratio : with ≠0 (b not equal to zero), and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship.

MCC6.RP.3 Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations.

MCC6.RP.3a Make tables of equivalent ratios relating quantities with whole-number measurements, find missing values in the tables, and plot the pairs of values on the coordinate plane. Use tables to compare ratios.

MCC6.RP.3b Solve unit rate problems including those involving unit pricing and constant speed.

MCC6.RP.3c Find a percent of a quantity as a rate per 100 (e.g., 30% of a quantity means 30/100 times the quantity); solve problems involving finding the whole given a part and the percent.

MCC6.RP.3d Use ratio reasoning to convert measurement units; manipulate and transform units appropriately when multiplying or dividing quantities.

MCC6.EE.1 Write and evaluate numerical expressions involving whole-number exponents.

MCC6.EE.2c Evaluate expressions at specific values for their variables. Include expressions that arise from formulas in real-world problems. Perform arithmetic operations, including those involving whole-number exponents, in the conventional order when there are no parentheses to specify a particular order (Order of Operations).

MCC6.EE.4 Identify when two expressions are equivalent

MCC6.EE.5 Understand solving an equation or inequality as a process of answering a question: which values from a specified set, if any, make the equation or inequality true? Use substitution to determine whether a given number in a specified set makes an equation or inequality true.

MCC6.EE.6 Use variables to represent numbers and write expressions when solving a real-world or mathematical problem; understand that a variable can represent an unknown number, or, depending on the purpose at hand, any number in a specified set.

MCC6.EE.7 Solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations of the form += and = for cases in which p, q and x are all nonnegative rational numbers.

MCC6.EE.8 Write an inequality of the form or to represent a constraint or condition in a real-world or mathematical problem. Recognize that inequalities of the form or have infinitely many solutions; represent solutions of such inequalities on number line diagrams.

MCC6.EE.9 Use variables to represent two quantities in a real-world problem that change in relationship to one another; write an equation to express one quantity, thought of as the dependent variable, in terms of the other quantity, thought of as the independent variable. Analyze the relationship between the dependent and independent variables using graphs and tables, and relate these to the equation.

MCC6.G.1 Find 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.

Re.: First Semester Final Exam Project

The Sixth Grade Math Students will have a project for their first semester final exam. This project will allow students to adequately apply first semester standards to real-world mathematics.

➢  To ensure your student receives the highest score possible, the parent needs to make available a computer, printer, art supplies, and various other supplies as it needed for this project. Check with your student regularly on their progress for at-home sections. Please check the math webpage and student agenda. Sign below and send back with your student on his/her next math class.

➢  To ensure the highest score possible, Mrs. McNabb will supply materials, instruction/direction, and will be available per request for additional sessions during your non-band/strings days.

➢  To ensure the highest score possible, each students needs complete all tasks on time with accuracy, and bring their IMN to class daily to use as a reference. Please check the math webpage and record in your agenda daily. If the student falls behind on an in-class section, he/she must attend additional sessions during non-band/strings days. Bring this sheet back signed below the next math class.

Note: 6/7A’s project is Dream House and 6th ‘s project is Cartoon Scale Factor.

All involved parties will complete below acknowledging their responsibility to the success of this project. This will earn your student a score of 100/A. If not returned the next math class, a deduction of 10pts. per day will apply.
