The PA Common Core MATHEMATICS Four Main Classifications 1. Number - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

The PA Common Core MATHEMATICS

Four Main Classifications 1. Number and Operations 2. Algebraic Concepts 3. Geometry 4. Data Analysis *Each classification is addressed in each grade level

8 Standards for Mathematical Practice 1. Make sense of problems & persevere in solving them 2. Reason abstractly & qualitatively 3. Construct viable arguments & critique the reasoning of others 4. Model with mathematics 5. Use appropriate tools strategically 6. Attend to precision 7. Look for & make sense of structure 8. Look for & make sense of regularity in repeated reasoning

Geometry Example

Geometry Example

Grade 5 Content  Multiply a fraction by a fraction  Express the calculation “add 8 and 7 and multiply by 2” …. as 2 x (8+7)  Display and interpret data as charts, tables, bar graphs, line graphs, etc…and use appropriate scale and labels **Taken from PDE 5 th Grade Assessment Anchors & Eligible Content p. 6-12

8 th Grade Example Question Statistics & Probability Given data on whether students have a curfew on school nights and whether they have assigned chores at home, is there evidence that those who have curfews also tend to have chores? **Taken from PDE 8 th Grade Assessment Anchors and Eligible Content p.13

High School Example Question Linear Functions & Data Organizations Jeff’s restaurant sells hamburgers. The amount charged for a hamburger ( h) is based on the cost for a plain hamburger plus an additional charge for each topping ( t ) as show below. h =0.60 t +5 What does the 0.60 represent in the equation? A. the number of toppings B. the cost of a plain hamburger C. the additional cost for each topping D. the cost of a hamburger with 1 topping **Taken from PDE Algebra 1 Keystone Assessment Anchors and Eligible Content with Questions p. 38
