| OBJECTIVES |
EXAMPLES |
| Objective A: Learners will identify, explore,
and apply patterns and functions in mathematical situations. |
- Investigate the effects of multiplying and dividing by multiples
and powers of ten.
- Explore the patterns inherent in the addition/subtraction and
multiplication/division tables.
- Analyze functional relationships to explain how a change in one
quantity results in a change in another. e.g., In a formula such as
A = lw, the inverse variation is: if “A” remains constant,
then an increase in “l” will result in a decrease in “w.”
The direct proportion is: if “l” remains the constant, (l
= A/w), then an increase in “w” will result in an increase
in “A,” or an increase in “A” will result in an
increase in “w.”
|
| Objective B: Learners will recognize,
describe, and create a variety of patterns. |
- Use a calculator to calculate decimal expansions for fractions to
discover terminating, repeating, delayed repeating, and
non-repeating decimal equivalents.
- Recognize patterns in geometric shapes.
- Recognize and use the patterns of the base ten system to explain
the magnitude of numbers.
- Use the patterns of the basic addition and multiplication facts
to aid in mental and paper and pencil calculations.
|
| Objective C: Learners will represent and
describe mathematical relationships. |
- Interpret information contained in graphs, charts, tables.
- Construct graphs, charts, tables using given information.
- Use a Cartesian plane to illustrate mathematical relationships
that result in straight and intersecting lines.
