Across approximately 15 days, students develop flexible understanding of whole numbers, decimals, fractions, ratios, rates, and percents. They read, represent, compare, and order numbers using place-value charts, number lines, base-ten materials, and visual fraction models. Students strengthen strategies for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division involving whole numbers and decimals, and connect fractions, decimals, ratios, and percents in meaningful contexts. They investigate factors, multiples, prime and composite numbers, greatest common factors, and least common multiples. Students also solve and explain multi-step problems involving money, measurement, discounts, unit rates, and integer contexts such as temperature and elevation. Emphasis should be placed on estimation, mental mathematics, reasonableness, multiple solution strategies, and clear mathematical communication.

Recommended Tasks
  • Create a personal number-system reference guide showing place value, equivalent fractions, decimal representations, benchmark percents, factor strategies, and integer models; include worked examples and explanations.
  • Complete a real-world financial investigation in which students compare prices, calculate discounts and taxes, determine unit rates, and justify the best purchase using estimation and exact calculations.
  • Solve a multi-step number-problem portfolio containing fraction, decimal, percent, factor, multiple, and integer problems; students must show models, equations, written reasoning, and a reasonableness check.
