Introduction Mathematics is the language that defines the blueprint of the universe. Mathematics is woven into all parts of our lives, and is more than a list of skills to be mastered. The essence of mathematics is the ability to employ critical thinking and reasoning to solve problems. To be successful in mathematics, one must see mathematics as sensible, useful, and worthwhile. The development and maturation of students’ conceptual understanding and application of the processes and procedures of mathematics is the driving force behind the 2011 Wyoming Mathematics Content and Performance Standards.
2011 WYOMING MATHEMATICS CONTENT AND PERFORMANCE STANDARDS DOCUMENT
The purpose of this document is to provide teachers with a horizontally and vertically articulated progression of the math standards. The intent is to ensure a guaranteed and viable curriculum for students as they progress through their educational journey in Natrona County School District. This document will provide guidance to teachers as they plan their instruction. Critical and supporting vocabulary has been identified to provide further guidance. 2011 WYOMING MATHEMATICS CONTENT AND PERFORMANCE STANDARDS RATIONALE:
The Common Core State Standards for Mathematics is a state-led effort to establish a single set of clear educational standards that states can share and voluntarily adopt. Including the Common Core State Standards into the 2011 Wyoming Mathematics Content and Performance Standards prepares Wyoming students to be competitive on the national and world stage. These standards are a set of specific, rigorous expectations that build students’ conceptual understanding, mathematical language, and application of processes and procedures coherently from one grade to the next so all students will be prepared for post-secondary experiences. The use of technology is expected throughout all levels of the standards. The focus areas for each grade level and conceptual category establish a depth of knowledge as opposed to a breadth of knowledge across multiple standards in each grade level or content area. The Standards for Mathematical Practices describe the essential ways of thinking and habits of mind that are the hallmark of a mathematically literate and informed citizen. The Common Core State Standards for mathematics stress both conceptual understanding and procedural skills to ensure students learn and can apply the critical information needed to succeed at each level. This creates a vertical articulation where the mathematics learned in elementary school provides the foundation for the study of statistics, probability, ratio and proportion, geometry, and algebra in middle school. This is, in turn, the bedrock upon which the knowledge needed for success in colleges and careers can be developed in the high school.

Algorithmic knowledge is no longer sufficient when preparing our students to become globally competitive. The knowledge of good practitioners goes beyond algorithmic learning and allows them to picture the problem and the many roads that may lead to absolution. They realize that mathematics is applicable outside of the classroom and are confident in their ability to apply mathematical concepts to all aspects of life. The symbiotic nature of the Standards of Mathematical Practice allows students to deepen their understandings of mathematical concepts and cultivates their autonomy as mathematically literate and informed citizens. Employing mathematics as a means of synthesizing complex concepts and making informed decisions is paramount to success in all post-secondary endeavors.
MATH CURRICULUM COMMITTEE PROCESS The alignment of math curriculum and shift towards a standards based approach in math education began in NCSD during the 2013-2014 school year with the adoption of a new primary resource. During professional development that school year teachers could choose to work in teams to create district pacing guides for each grade level and address district-wide concerns regarding a guaranteed and viable curriculum in math, common assessments, and the appropriate use of instructional resources. This committee work has continued as teacher teams have worked to revise the pacing guides, discuss critical vocabulary, and work on common assessments. In March 2015 the math curriculum committee surveyed teachers to gather input and were charged with making final revisions to the district pacing guides, identifying critical vocabulary, and revising district common assessments. Committee members were sensitive to the concerns of teachers and worked diligently to make appropriate changes to meet the needs of the entire district. As this work moves forward, teacher committees will continue to engage in the alignment of standards and assessment in math.

1.OA.1 Use addition and subtraction within 20 to solve word problems involving situations of
adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all
positions, e.g., by using objects, drawings, and equations with a symbol for the unknown
number to represent the problem. (See Glossary in the CCSSM document)
NCSD clarification -
1.OA.1 Within 10; with solving for unknowns
1.OA.3 Apply properties of operations as strategies to add and subtract. (Students need not use
formal terms for these properties.) Examples: If 8 + 3 = 11 is known, then 3 + 8 = 11 is
also known. (Commutative property of addition.) To add 2 + 6 + 4, the second two
numbers can be added to make a ten, so 2 + 6 + 4 = 2 + 10 = 12. (Associative property of
addition.)
NCSD clarification -
1.OA.3 Commutative Property
1.OA.5 Relate counting to addition and subtraction (e.g., by counting on 2 to add 2).
1.OA.7 Understand the meaning of the equal sign, and determine equations involving addition and
subtraction are true or false. For example, which of the following equations are true and
which are false? 6=6, 7=8-1, 5+2=2+5, 4+1=5+2
1.NBT.1 Count to 120, starting at any number less than 120. In this range, read and write numerals
and represent a number of objects with a written numeral.
1.NBT.2 Understand that the two digits of a two-digit number represent amounts of tens and ones.
Understand the following as special cases:
a. 10 can be thought of as a bundle of ten ones — called a “ten.”
b. The numbers from 11 to 19 are composed of a ten and one, two, three, four, five,
six, seven, eight, or nine ones.
1.MD.1 Order three objects by length; compare the lengths of two objects indirectly by using a
third object.
1.MD.2 Express the length of an object as a whole number of length units, by laying multiple
copies of a shorter object (the length unit) end to end; understand that the length
measurement of an object is the number of same-size length units that span it with no gaps
or overlaps. Limit to contexts where the object being measured is spanned by a whole
number of length units with no gaps or overlaps.

4.NBT.1 Recognize that in a multi-digit whole number, a digit in one place represents ten times what
it represents in the place to its right. For example, recognize that 700 ÷ 70 = 10 by
applying concepts of place value and division.
4.NBT.2 Read and write multi-digit whole numbers using base-ten numerals, number names, and
expanded form. Compare two multi-digit numbers based on meanings of the digits in each
place, using >, =, and < symbols to record the results of comparisons.
4.NBT.3 Use place value understanding to round multi-digit whole numbers to any place.
4.NBT.4 Fluently add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.
4.NBT.5 Multiply a whole number of up to four digits by a one-digit whole number, and multiply
two two-digit numbers, using strategies based on place value and the properties of
operations. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays,
and/or area models.
4.NBT.6 Find whole-number quotients and remainders with up to four-digit dividends and one-digit
divisors, using strategies based on place value, the properties of operations, and/or the
relationship between multiplication and division. Illustrate and explain the calculation by
using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.
4.OA.1 Interpret a multiplication equation as a comparison, e.g., interpret 35 = 5 × 7 as a statement
that 35 is 5 times as many as 7 and 7 times as many as 5. Represent verbal statements of
multiplicative comparisons as multiplication equations.
4.OA.2 Multiply or divide to solve word problems involving multiplicative comparison, e.g., by
using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the
problem, distinguishing multiplicative comparison from additive comparison.
4.OA.3 Solve multistep word problems posed with whole numbers and having whole-number
answers using the four operations, including problems in which remainders must be
interpreted. Represent these problems using equations with a letter standing for the
unknown quantity. Assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and
estimation strategies including rounding.
4.OA.4 Find all factor pairs for a whole number in the range 1–100. Recognize that a whole
number is a multiple of each of its factors. Determine whether a given whole number in the
range 1–100 is a multiple of a given one-digit number. Determine whether a given whole
number in the range 1–100 is prime or composite.

4.OA.4 Find all factor pairs for a whole number in the range 1–100. Recognize that a whole number
is a multiple of each of its factors. Determine whether a given whole number in the range
1–100 is a multiple of a given one-digit number. Determine whether a given whole number
in the range 1–100 is prime or composite.
4.NF.1 Explain why a fraction a/b is equivalent to a fraction (n × a)/(n × b) by using visual fraction
models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two
fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate
equivalent fractions.
4.NF.2 Compare two fractions with different numerators and different denominators, e.g., by
creating common denominators or numerators, or by comparing to a benchmark fraction
such as 1/2. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions refer to the
same whole. Record the results of comparisons with symbols >, =, or <, and justify the
conclusions, e.g., by using a visual fraction model.
4.NF.3 Understand a fraction a/b with a > 1 as a sum of fractions 1 / b.
a. Understand addition and subtraction of fractions as joining and separating parts
referring to the same whole.
b. Decompose a fraction into a sum of fractions with the same denominator in more
Natrona County School District Mathematics Curriculum
Back to Table of Contents Page 47 of 146, Revised by committee June 2015
than one way, recording each decomposition by an equation. Justify
decompositions, e.g., by using a visual fraction model. Examples: 3/8 = 1/8 + 1/8
+ 1/8; 3/8 = 1/8 + 2/8; 2 1/8 = 1 + 1 + 1/8 = 8/8 + 8/8 + 1/8.
c. Add and subtract mixed numbers with like denominators, e.g., by replacing each
mixed number with an equivalent fraction, and/or by using properties of operations
and the relationship between addition and subtraction.
d. Solve word problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions referring to the
same whole and having like denominators, e.g., by using visual fraction models and
equations to represent the problem.
4.NF.4 Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication to multiply a fraction by a
whole number.
a. Understand a fraction a/b as a multiple of 1/b. For example, use a visual fraction
model to represent 5/4 as the product 5 × (1/4), recording the conclusion by the
equation 5/4 = 5 × (1/4).
b. Understand a multiple of a/b as a multiple of 1/b, and use this understanding to
multiply a fraction by a whole number. For example, use a visual fraction model to
express 3 × (2/5) as 6 × (1/5), recognizing this product as 6/5. (In general, n ×
(a/b) = (n × a)/b.)
c. Solve word problems involving multiplication of a fraction by a whole number, e.g.,
by using visual fraction models and equations to represent the problem. For
example, if each person at a party will eat 3/8 of a pound of roast beef, and there
will be 5 people at the party, how many pounds of roast beef will be needed?
Between what two whole numbers does your answer lie?
4.NF.5 Express a fraction with denominator 10 as an equivalent fraction with denominator 100, and
use this technique to add two fractions with respective denominators 10 and 100. (Students
who can generate equivalent fractions can develop strategies for adding fractions with
unlike denominators in general. But addition and subtraction with unlike denominators in
general is not a requirement at this grade.) For example, express 3/10 as 30/100, and add
3/10 + 4/100 = 34/100.
4.NF.6 Use decimal notation for fractions with denominators 10 or 100. For example, rewrite 0.62
as 62/100; describe a length as 0.62 meters; locate 0.62 on a number line diagram.
4.NF.7 Compare two decimals to hundredths by reasoning about their size. Recognize that
comparisons are valid only when the two decimals refer to the same whole. Record the
results of comparisons with the symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by
using a visual model.
4.G.3
Recognize a line of symmetry for a two-dimensional figure as a line across the figure such
that the figure can be folded along the line into matching parts. Identify line-symmetric
figures and draw lines of symmetry.

4.OA.5 Generate a number or shape pattern that follows a given rule. Identify apparent features of
the pattern that were not explicit in the rule itself. For example, given the rule “Add 3” and
the starting number 1, generate terms in the resulting sequence and observe that the terms
appear to alternate between odd and even numbers. Explain informally why the numbers
will continue to alternate in this way.
4.MD.1 Know relative sizes of measurement units within one system of units including km, m, cm;
kg, g; lb, oz.; l, ml; hr, min, sec. Within a single system of measurement, express
Natrona County School District Mathematics Curriculum

measurements in a larger unit in terms of a smaller unit. Record measurement equivalents
in a two column table. For example, know that 1 ft is 12 times as long as 1 in. Express the
length of a 4 ft snake as 48 in. Generate a conversion table for feet and inches listing the
number pairs (1, 12), (2, 24), (3, 36), …
4.MD.2 Use the four operations to solve word problems involving distances, intervals of time,
liquid volumes, masses of objects, and money, including problems involving simple
fractions or decimals, and problems that require expressing measurements given in a larger
unit in terms of a smaller unit. Represent measurement quantities using diagrams such as
number line diagrams that feature a measurement scale.
4.MD.4 Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8).
Solve problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions by using information
presented in line plots. For example, from a line plot find and interpret the difference in
length between the longest and shortest specimens in an insect collection.
4.MD.5 Recognize angles as geometric shapes that are formed wherever two rays share a common
endpoint, and understand concepts of angle measurement:
a. An angle is measured with reference to a circle with its center at the common
endpoint of the rays, by considering the fraction of the circular arc between the
points where the two rays intersect the circle. An angle that turns through 1/360 of a
circle is called a “one-degree angle,” and can be used to measure angles.
b. An angle that turns through n one-degree angles is said to have an angle measure of
n degrees.
4.MD.6 Measure angles in whole-number degrees using a protractor. Sketch angles of specified
measure.
4.MD.7 Recognize angle measure as additive. When an angle is decomposed into non-overlapping
parts, the angle measure of the whole is the sum of the angle measures of the parts. Solve
addition and subtraction problems to find unknown angles on a diagram in real world and
mathematical problems, e.g., by using an equation with a symbol for the unknown angle
measure.
4.G.1 Draw points, lines, line segments, rays, angles (right, acute, obtuse), and perpendicular and
parallel lines. Identify these in two-dimensional figures.
4.G.2 Classify two-dimensional figures based on the presence or absence of parallel or

word problems involving division of whole numbers leading to answers in the form of
fractions or mixed numbers, e.g., by using visual fraction models or equations to represent
the problem. For example, interpret 3/4 as the result of dividing 3 by 4, noting that 3/4
multiplied by 4 equals 3, and that when 3 wholes are shared equally among 4 people each
person has a share of size 3/4. If 9 people want to share a 50-pound sack of rice equally by
weight, how many pounds of rice should each person get? Between what two whole
numbers does your answer lie?

5.NF.1 Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators (including mixed numbers) by
replacing given fractions with equivalent fractions in such a way as to produce an
equivalent sum or difference of fractions with like denominators. For example, 2/3 + 5/4 =
8/12 + 15/12 = 23/12. (In general, a/b + c/d = (ad + bc)/bd.)
5.NF.2 Solve word problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions referring to the same
whole, including cases of unlike denominators, e.g., by using visual fraction models or
equations to represent the problem. Use benchmark fractions and number sense of fractions
to estimate mentally and assess the reasonableness of answers. For example, recognize an
incorrect result 2/5 + 1/2 = 3/7, by observing that 3/7 < 1/2.
5.NF.3 Interpret a fraction as division of the numerator by the denominator (a/b = a ÷ b). Solve
word problems involving division of whole numbers leading to answers in the form of
fractions or mixed numbers, e.g., by using visual fraction models or equations to represent
the problem. For example, interpret 3/4 as the result of dividing 3 by 4, noting that 3/4

multiplied by 4 equals 3, and that when 3 wholes are shared equally among 4 people each
person has a share of size 3/4. If 9 people want to share a 50-pound sack of rice equally by
weight, how many pounds of rice should each person get? Between what two whole
numbers does your answer lie?
5.NF.4 Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication to multiply a fraction or whole
number by a fraction.
a. Interpret the product (a/b) × q as a parts of a partition of q into b equal parts;
equivalently, as the result of a sequence of operations a × q ÷ b. For example, use a
visual fraction model to show (2/3) × 4 = 8/3, and create a story context for this
equation. Do the same with (2/3) × (4/5) = 8/15. (In general, (a/b) × (c/d) = ac/bd.)
b. Find the area of a rectangle with fractional side lengths by tiling it with unit squares
of the appropriate unit fraction side lengths, and show that the area is the same as
would be found by multiplying the side lengths. Multiply fractional side lengths to
find areas of rectangles, and represent fraction products as rectangular areas.
5.NF.5 Interpret multiplication as scaling (resizing), by:
a. Comparing the size of a product to the size of one factor on the basis of the size of
the other factor, without performing the indicated multiplication.
b. Explaining why multiplying a given number by a fraction greater than 1 results in a
product greater than the given number (recognizing multiplication by whole
numbers greater than 1 as a familiar case); explaining why multiplying a given
number by a fraction less than 1 results in a product smaller than the given number;
and relating the principle of fraction equivalence a/b = (n×a)/(n×b) to the effect of
multiplying a/b by 1.
5.NF.6 Solve real world problems involving multiplication of fractions and mixed numbers, e.g., by
using visual fraction models or equations to represent the problem.
5.NF.7 Apply and extend previous understandings of division to divide unit fractions by whole
numbers and whole numbers by unit fractions. (Students able to multiply fractions in
general can develop strategies to divide fractions in general, by reasoning about the
relationship between multiplication and division. But division of a fraction by a fraction is
not a requirement at this grade.)
a. Interpret division of a unit fraction by a non-zero whole number, and compute such
quotients. For example, create a story context for (1/3) ÷ 4, and use a visual
fraction model to show the quotient. Use the relationship between multiplication and
division to explain that (1/3) ÷ 4 = 1/12 because (1/12) × 4 = 1/3.
b. Interpret division of a whole number by a unit fraction, and compute such quotients.
For example, create a story context for 4 ÷ (1/5), and use a visual fraction model to
show the quotient. Use the relationship between multiplication and division to
explain that 4 ÷ (1/5) = 20 because 20 × (1/5) = 4.
c. Solve real world problems involving division of unit fractions by non-zero whole
numbers and division of whole numbers by unit fractions, e.g., by using visual
fraction models and equations to represent the problem. For example, how much
chocolate will each person get if 3 people share 1/2 lb of chocolate equally? How
many 1/3-cup servings are in 2 cups of raisins?
5.MD.1 Convert among different-sized standard measurement units within a given measurement

system (e.g., convert 5 cm to 0.05 m), and use these conversions in solving multi-step, real
world problems.
5.MD.3 Recognize volume as an attribute of solid figures and understand concepts of volume
measurement.
a. A cube with side length 1 unit, called a “unit cube,” is said to have “one cubic unit”
of volume, and can be used to measure volume.
b. A solid figure which can be packed without gaps or overlaps using n unit cubes is
said to have a volume of n cubic units.
5.MD.4 Measure volumes by counting unit cubes, using cubic cm, cubic in, cubic ft, and improvised
units.
5.MD.5 Relate volume to the operations of multiplication and addition and solve real world and
mathematical problems involving volume.
a. Find the volume of a right rectangular prism with whole-number side lengths by
packing it with unit cubes, and show that the volume is the same as would be found
by multiplying the edge lengths, equivalently by multiplying the height by the area
of the base. Represent threefold whole-number products as volumes, e.g., to
represent the associative property of multiplication.
b. Apply the formulas V=l×w×h and V=b×h for rectangular prisms to find volumes of
right rectangular prisms with whole number edge lengths in the context of solving
real world and mathematical problems.
c. Recognize volume as additive. Find volumes of solid figures composed of two non-
overlapping right rectangular prisms by adding the volumes of the non- overlapping
parts, applying this technique to solve real world problems.

5.MD.1 Convert among different-sized standard measurement units within a given measurement
system (e.g., convert 5 cm to 0.05 m), and use these conversions in solving multi-step, real
world problems.
5.MD.2 Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8).
Use operations on fractions for this grade to solve problems involving information
presented in line plots. For example, given different measurements of liquid in identical
beakers, find the amount of liquid each beaker would contain if the total amount in all the
beakers were redistributed equally.
5.G.1 Use a pair of perpendicular number lines, called axes, to define a coordinate system, with
the intersection of the lines (the origin) arranged to coincide with the 0 on each line and a
given point in the plane located by using an ordered pair of numbers, called its coordinates.
Understand that the first number indicates how far to travel from the origin in the direction
of one axis, and the second number indicates how far to travel in the direction of the second
axis, with the convention that the names of the two axes and the coordinates correspond
(e.g., x-axis and x-coordinate, y-axis and y-coordinate).
5.G.2 Represent real world and mathematical problems by graphing points in the first quadrant of
the coordinate plane, and interpret coordinate values of points in the context of the
situation.
5.G.3 Understand that attributes belonging to a category of two-dimensional figures also belong
to all subcategories of that category. For example, all rectangles have four right angles and
squares are rectangles, so all squares have four right angles.
5.G.4 Classify two-dimensional figures in a hierarchy based on properties.

6.NS.1 Interpret and compute quotients of fractions, and solve word problems involving division
of fractions by fractions, e.g., by using visual fraction models and equations to represent
the problem. For example, create a story context for (2/3) ÷ (3/4) and use a visual fraction
model to show the quotient; use the relationship between multiplication and division to
explain that (2/3) ÷ (3/4) = 8/9 because 3/4 of 8/9 is 2/3. (In general, (a/b) ÷ (c/d) = ad/bc.)
How much chocolate will each person get if 3 people share 1/2 lb of chocolate equally?
How many 3/4-cup servings are in 2/3 of a cup of yogurt? How wide is a rectangular strip
of land with length 3/4 mi and area 1/2 square mi?
6.NS.2 Fluently divide multi-digit numbers using the standard algorithm.
6.NS.3 Fluently add, subtract, multiply, and divide multi-digit decimals using the standard
algorithm for each operation.
6.NS.4 Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers less than or equal to 100 and the
least common multiple of two whole numbers less than or equal to 12. Use the distributive
property to express a sum of two whole numbers 1–100 with a common factor as a
multiple of a sum of two whole numbers with no common factor. For example, express 36
+ 8 as 4 (9 + 2).
6.NS.5 Understand that positive and negative numbers are used together to describe quantities
having opposite directions or values (e.g., temperature above/ below zero, elevation
above/below sea level, credits/debits, positive/negative electric charge); use positive and
negative numbers to represent quantities in real-world contexts, explaining the meaning of
0 in each situation.
6.NS.6 Understand a rational number as a point on the number line. Extend number line diagrams
and coordinate axes familiar from previous grades to represent points on the line and in the
plane with negative number coordinates.
a. Recognize opposite signs of numbers as indicating locations on opposite sides of 0
on the number line; recognize that the opposite of the opposite of a number is the
number itself, e.g., –(–3) = 3, and that 0 is its own opposite.
b. Understand signs of numbers in ordered pairs as indicating locations in quadrants
of the coordinate plane; recognize that when two ordered pairs differ only by signs,
the locations of the points are related by reflections across one or both axes.
c. Find and position integers and other rational numbers on a horizontal or vertical
number line diagram; find and position pairs of integers and other rational numbers
on a coordinate plane.
6.NS.7 Understand ordering and absolute value of rational numbers.

a. Interpret statements of inequality as statements about the relative position of two
numbers on a number line diagram. For example, interpret –3 > –7 as a statement
that –3 is located to the right of –7 on a number line oriented from left to right.
b. Write, interpret, and explain statements of order for rational numbers in real-world
contexts. For example, write –3 oC > –7 oC to express the fact that –3 oC is
warmer than –7 oC.
c. Understand the absolute value of a rational number as its distance from 0 on the
number line; interpret absolute value as magnitude for a positive or negative
quantity in a real-world situation. For example, for an account balance of –30
dollars, write |–30| = 30 to describe the size of the debt in dollars.
d. Distinguish comparisons of absolute value from statements about order. For
example, recognize that an account balance less than –30 dollars represents a debt
greater than 30 dollars.

the coordinate plane. Include use of coordinates and absolute value to find distances
between points with the same first coordinate or the same second coordinate.

● Ratios and Proportional Relationships
● Fractions, Decimals and Percent
Standards
6.RP.1 Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship
between two quantities. For example, “The ratio of wings to beaks in the bird house at the zoo was 2:1, because for every 2 wings there was 1 beak.” “For every vote candidate A
received, candidate C received nearly three votes.”
6.RP.2 Understand the concept of a unit rate a/b associated with a ratio a:b with b ≠ 0, and use
rate language in the context of a ratio relationship. For example, “This recipe has a
ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar, so there is 3/4 cup of flour for each cup of
sugar.” “We paid $75 for 15 hamburgers, which is a rate of $5 per hamburger.”
6.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.
a. 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.
b. Solve unit rate problems including those involving unit pricing and constant speed. For example, if it took 7 hours to mow 4 lawns, then at that rate, how many lawns
could be mowed in 35 hours? At what rate were lawns being mowed.
c. 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.
d. Use ratio reasoning to convert measurement units; manipulate and transform units
appropriately when multiplying or dividing quantities.
6.NS.1 Interpret and compute quotients of fractions, and solve word problems involving division
of fractions by fractions, e.g., by using visual fraction models and equations to represent
the problem. For example, create a story context for (2/3) ÷ (3/4) and use a visual fraction

6.EE.1 Write and evaluate numerical expressions involving whole-number exponents.
6.EE.2 Write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers.
a. Write expressions that record operations with numbers and with letters standing for
numbers. For example, express the calculation “Subtract y from 5” as 5 – y.
b. Identify parts of an expression using mathematical terms (sum, term, product,
factor, quotient, coefficient); view one or more parts of an expression as a single
entity. For example, describe the expression 2 (8 + 7) as a product of two factors;
view (8 + 7) as both a single entity and a sum of two terms.
c. Evaluate expressions at specific values of their variables. Include expressions that
arise from formulas used 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). For
example, use the formulas V = s3 and A = 6 s2 to find the volume and surface area
of a cube with sides of length s = 1/2.
6.EE.3 Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. For example, apply
the distributive property to the expression 3 (2 + x) to produce the equivalent expression 6
+ 3x; apply the distributive property to the expression 24x + 18y to produce the
equivalent expression 6 (4x + 3y); apply properties of operations to y + y + y to produce
the equivalent expression 3y.
6.EE.4 Identify when two expressions are equivalent (i.e., when the two expressions name the
same number regardless of which value is substituted into them). For example, the
expressions y + y + y and 3y are equivalent because they name the same number
regardless of which number y stands for.
6.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.
6.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.
6.EE.7 Solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations of the form
x + p = q and px = q for cases in which p, q and x are all nonnegative rational numbers.
6.EE.8 Write an inequality of the form x > c or x < c to represent a constraint or condition in a
real-world or mathematical problem. Recognize that inequalities of the form x > c or x < c
have infinitely many solutions; represent solutions of such inequalities on number line
diagrams.
6.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. For example, in a problem involving motion at
constant speed, list and graph ordered pairs of distances and times, and write the
equation d = 65t to represent the relationship between distance and time.

31 Days Pacing Guide Section 1
● The Number System
Standards
7.NS.1 Apply and extend previous understandings of addition and subtraction to add and subtract
rational numbers; represent addition and subtraction on a horizontal or vertical number line
diagram.
a. Describe situations in which opposite quantities combine to make 0. For example,
a hydrogen atom has 0 charge because its two constituents are oppositely charged.
b. Understand p + q as the number located a distance |q| from p, in the positive or
negative direction depending on whether q is positive or negative. Show that a
number and its opposite have a sum of 0 (are additive inverses). Interpret sums of
rational numbers by describing real-world contexts.
c. Understand subtraction of rational numbers as adding the additive inverse, p – q =
p + (–q). Show that the distance between two rational numbers on the number line
is the absolute value of their difference, and apply this principle in real-world
contexts.
d. Apply properties of operations as strategies to add and subtract rational numbers.
7.NS.2 Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division and of fractions
to multiply and divide rational numbers.
a. Understand that multiplication is extended from fractions to rational numbers by
requiring that operations continue to satisfy the properties of operations,
particularly the distributive property, leading to products such as (–1)(–1) = 1 and
the rules for multiplying signed numbers. Interpret products of rational numbers by
describing real-world contexts.
b. Understand that integers can be divided, provided that the divisor is not zero, and
every quotient of integers (with non-zero divisor) is a rational number. If p and q
are integers, then –(p/q) = (–p)/q = p/(–q). Interpret quotients of rational numbers
by describing real world contexts.
c. Apply properties of operations as strategies to multiply and divide rational
numbers.
d. Convert a rational number to a decimal using long division; know that the decimal
form of a rational number terminates in 0s or eventually repeats.
7.NS.3 Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving the four operations with rational
numbers. (Computations with rational numbers extend the rules for manipulating fractions
to complex fractions.

● Expressions and Equations
Standards
7.EE.1 Apply properties of operations as strategies to add, subtract, factor, and expand linear
expressions with rational coefficients.
7.EE.2 Understand that rewriting an expression in different forms in a problem context can shed
light on the problem and how the quantities in it are related. For example, a + 0.05a =
1.05a means that “increase by 5%” is the same as “multiply by 1.05.”
7.EE.3 Solve multi-step real-life and mathematical problems posed with positive and negative
rational numbers in any form (whole numbers, fractions, and decimals), using tools
strategically. Apply properties of operations to calculate with numbers in any form;
convert between forms as appropriate; and assess the reasonableness of answers using
mental computation and estimation strategies. For example: If a woman making $25 an
hour gets a 10% raise, she will make an additional 1/10 of her salary an hour, or $2.50,
for a new salary of $27.50. If you want to place a towel bar 9 3/4 inches long in the center
of a door that is 27 1/2 inches wide, you will need to place the bar about 9 inches from
each edge; this estimate can be used as a check on the exact computation.
7.EE.4 Use variables to represent quantities in a real-world or mathematical problem, and
construct simple equations and inequalities to solve problems by reasoning about the
quantities.
a. Solve word problems leading to equations of the form px + q = r and p(x + q) = r,
where p, q, and r are specific rational numbers. Solve equations of these forms
fluently. Compare an algebraic solution to an arithmetic solution, identifying the
sequence of the operations used in each approach. For example, the perimeter of a
rectangle is 54 cm. Its length is 6 cm. What is its width?
b. Solve word problems leading to inequalities of the form px + q > r or px + q < r,
Natrona County School District Mathematics Curriculum
Back to Table of Contents Page 69 of 146, Revised by committee June 2015
where p, q, and r are specific rational numbers. Graph the solution set of the
inequality and interpret it in the context of the problem. For example: As a
salesperson, you are paid $50 per week plus $3 per sale. This week you want your
pay to be at least $100. Write an inequality for the number of sales you need to
make, and describe the solutions.

● Ratios and Proportional Relationships
Standards
7.RP.1 Compute unit rates associated with ratios of fractions, including ratios of lengths, areas
and other quantities measured in like or different units. For example, if a person walks 1/2
mile in each 1/4 hour, compute the unit rate as the complex fraction 1/2/1/4 miles per
hour, equivalently 2 miles per hour.
7.RP.2 Recognize and represent proportional relationships between quantities.
a. Decide whether two quantities are in a proportional relationship, e.g., by testing for
equivalent ratios in a table or graphing on a coordinate plane and observing
whether the graph is a straight line through the origin.
b. Identify the constant of proportionality (unit rate) in tables, graphs, equations,
diagrams, and verbal descriptions of proportional relationships.
c. Represent proportional relationships by equations. For example, if total cost t is

proportional to the number n of items purchased at a constant price p, the
relationship between the total cost and the number of items can be expressed as t =
pn.
d. Explain what a point (x, y) on the graph of a proportional relationship means in
terms of the situation, with special attention to the points (0, 0) and (1, r) where r is
the unit rate.

Standards
7.G.1 Solve problems involving scale drawings of geometric figures, including computing actual
lengths and areas from a scale drawing and reproducing a scale drawing at a different
scale.
7.G.2 Draw (freehand, with ruler and protractor, and with technology) geometric shapes with
given conditions. Focus on constructing triangles from three measures of angles or sides,
noticing when the conditions determine a unique triangle, more than one triangle, or no
triangle.
7.G.3 Describe the two-dimensional figures that result from slicing three-dimensional figures, as
in plane sections of right rectangular prisms and right rectangular pyramids.
7.G.4 Know the formulas for the area and circumference of a circle and use them to solve
problems; give an informal derivation of the relationship between the circumference and
area of a circle.
7.G.5 Use facts about supplementary, complementary, vertical, and adjacent angles in a multi-
step problem to write and solve simple equations for an unknown angle in a figure.
7.G.6 Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, volume and surface area of
two- and three-dimensional objects composed of triangles, quadrilaterals, polygons, cubes,
and right prisms.
7.SP.1 Understand that statistics can be used to gain information about a population by examining
a sample of the population; generalizations about a population from a sample are valid
only if the sample is representative of that population. Understand that random sampling
tends to produce representative samples and support valid inferences.
7.SP.2 Use data from a random sample to draw inferences about a population with an unknown
characteristic of interest. Generate multiple samples (or simulated samples) of the same
size to gauge the variation in estimates or predictions. For example, estimate the mean
word length in a book by randomly sampling words from the book; predict the winner of a
school election based on randomly sampled survey data. Gauge how far off the estimate or
prediction might be.
7.SP.3 Informally assess the degree of visual overlap of two numerical data distributions with
similar variabilities, measuring the difference between the centers by expressing it as a
multiple of a measure of variability. For example, the mean height of players on the
basketball team is 10 cm greater than the mean height of players on the soccer team,
about twice the variability (mean absolute deviation) on either team; on a dot plot, the
separation between the two distributions of heights is noticeable.
7.SP.4 Use measures of center and measures of variability for numerical data from random
samples to draw informal comparative inferences about two populations. For example,
decide whether the words in a chapter of a seventh-grade science book are generally
longer than the words in a chapter of a fourth-grade science book.
Natrona County School District Mathematics Curriculum
Back to Table of Contents Page 72 of 146, Revised by committee June 2015
7.SP.5 Understand that the probability of a chance event is a number between 0 and 1 that
expresses the likelihood of the event occurring. Larger numbers indicate greater
likelihood. A probability near 0 indicates an unlikely event, a probability around 1/2
indicates an event that is neither unlikely nor likely, and a probability near 1 indicates a
likely event.
7.SP.6 Approximate the probability of a chance event by collecting data on the chance process
that produces it and observing its long-run relative frequency, and predict the approximate
relative frequency given the probability. For example, when rolling a number cube 600
times, predict that a 3 or 6 would be rolled roughly 200 times, but probably not exactly
200 times.
7.SP.7 Develop a probability model and use it to find probabilities of events. Compare
probabilities from a model to observed frequencies; if the agreement is not good, explain
possible sources of the discrepancy.
a. Develop a uniform probability model by assigning equal probability to all
outcomes, and use the model to determine probabilities of events. For example, if
a student is selected at random from a class, find the probability that Jane will be
selected and the probability that a girl will be selected.
b. Develop a probability model (which may not be uniform) by observing frequencies
in data generated from a chance process. For example, find the approximate
probability that a spinning penny will land heads up or that a tossed paper cup will
land open-end down. Do the outcomes for the spinning penny appear to be equally
likely based on the observed frequencies?
7.SP.8 Find probabilities of compound events using organized lists, tables, tree diagrams, and
simulation.
a. Understand that, just as with simple events, the probability of a compound event is
the fraction of outcomes in the sample space for which the compound event occurs.
b. Represent sample spaces for compound events using methods such as organized
lists, tables and tree diagrams. For an event described in everyday language (e.g.,
“rolling double sixes”), identify the outcomes in the sample space which compose
the event.
c. Design and use a simulation to generate frequencies for compound events. . For
example, use random digits as a simulation tool to approximate the answer to the
question: If 40% of donors have type A blood, what is the probability that it will
take at least 4 donors to find one with type A blood?

a. Understand that multiplication is extended from fractions to rational numbers by
requiring that operations continue to satisfy the properties of operations,
particularly the distributive property, leading to products such as (–1)(–1) = 1 and
the rules for multiplying signed numbers. Interpret products of rational numbers by
describing real-world contexts.

8.NS.2 Use rational approximations of irrational numbers to compare the size of irrational
numbers, locate them approximately on a number line diagram, and estimate the value of
expressions (e.g., π2). For example, by truncating the decimal expansion of √2, show that
√2 is between 1 and 2, then between 1.4 and 1.5, and explain how to continue on to get
better approximations
8.EE.1 Know and apply the properties of integer exponents to generate equivalent numerical
expressions. For example, 32 × 3–5 = 3–3 = 1/33 = 1/27.
8.EE.2 Use square root and cube root symbols to represent solutions to equations of the form x2 =
p and x3 = p, where p is a positive rational number. Evaluate square roots of small
perfect squares and cube roots of small perfect cubes. Know that √2 is irrational.
8.EE.3 Use numbers expressed in the form of a single digit times an integer power of 10 to
estimate very large or very small quantities, and to express how many times as much one
is than the other. For example, estimate the population of the United States as 3 × 108 and
the population of the world as 7 × 109, and determine that the world population is more
than 20 times larger.
8.EE.4 Perform operations with numbers expressed in scientific notation, including problems
where both decimal and scientific notation are used. Use scientific notation and choose
units of appropriate size for measurements of very large or very small quantities (e.g., use
millimeters per year for seafloor spreading). Interpret scientific notation that has been
generated by technology.

8.EE.8 Analyze and solve pairs of simultaneous linear equations.
a. Understand that solutions to a system of two linear equations in two variables
correspond to points of intersection of their graphs, because points of intersection
satisfy both equations simultaneously.
b. Solve systems of two linear equations in two variables algebraically, and estimate
solutions by graphing the equations. Solve simple cases by inspection. For
example, 3x + 2y = 5 and 3x + 2y = 6 have no solution because 3x + 2y cannot

8.F.2 Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way (algebraically,
graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions). For example, given a linear
function represented by a table of values and a linear function represented by an algebraic

expression, determine which function has the greater rate of change.
8.F.3 Interpret the equation y = mx + b as defining a linear function, whose graph is a straight
line; give examples of functions that are not linear. For example, the function A = s2
giving the area of a square as a function of its side length is not linear because its graph
contains the points (1,1), (2,4) and (3,9), which are not on a straight line.
8.F.4 Construct a function to model a linear relationship between two quantities. Determine the
rate of change and initial value of the function from a description of a relationship or from
two (x, y) values, including reading these from a table or from a graph. Interpret the rate of
change and initial value of a linear function in terms of the situation it models, and in
terms of its graph or a table of values.
8.F.5 Describe qualitatively the functional relationship between two quantities by analyzing a
graph (e.g., where the function is increasing or decreasing, linear or nonlinear). Sketch a
graph that exhibits the qualitative features of a function that has been described verbally.

7.G.1 Solve problems involving scale drawings of geometric figures, including computing actual
lengths and areas from a scale drawing and reproducing a scale drawing at a different
scale.
7.G.2 Draw (freehand, with ruler and protractor, and with technology) geometric shapes with
given conditions. Focus on constructing triangles from three measures of angles or sides,
noticing when the conditions determine a unique triangle, more than one triangle, or no
triangle.
7.G.3 Describe the two-dimensional figures that result from slicing three-dimensional figures, as
in plane sections of right rectangular prisms and right rectangular pyramids.
7.G.4 Know the formulas for the area and circumference of a circle and use them to solve
problems; give an informal derivation of the relationship between the circumference and
area of a circle.
7.G.5 Use facts about supplementary, complementary, vertical, and adjacent angles in a multi-
step problem to write and solve simple equations for an unknown angle in a figure.
7.G.6 Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, volume and surface area of
two- and three-dimensional objects composed of triangles, quadrilaterals, polygons, cubes,
and right prisms.
7.SP.1 Understand that statistics can be used to gain information about a population by examining
a sample of the population; generalizations about a population from a sample are valid
only if the sample is representative of that population. Understand that random sampling
tends to produce representative samples and support valid inferences.
7.SP.2 Use data from a random sample to draw inferences about a population with an unknown
characteristic of interest. Generate multiple samples (or simulated samples) of the same
size to gauge the variation in estimates or predictions. For example, estimate the mean
word length in a book by randomly sampling words from the book; predict the winner of a
school election based on randomly sampled survey data. Gauge how far off the estimate or
prediction might be.
7.SP.3 Informally assess the degree of visual overlap of two numerical data distributions with
similar variabilities, measuring the difference between the centers by expressing it as a
multiple of a measure of variability. For example, the mean height of players on the
basketball team is 10 cm greater than the mean height of players on the soccer team,
about twice the variability (mean absolute deviation) on either team; on a dot plot, the
separation between the two distributions of heights is noticeable.
7.SP.4 Use measures of center and measures of variability for numerical data from random
samples to draw informal comparative inferences about two populations. For example,
decide whether the words in a chapter of a seventh-grade science book are generally
longer than the words in a chapter of a fourth-grade science book.

7.SP.5 Understand that the probability of a chance event is a number between 0 and 1 that
expresses the likelihood of the event occurring. Larger numbers indicate greater
likelihood. A probability near 0 indicates an unlikely event, a probability around 1/2
indicates an event that is neither unlikely nor likely, and a probability near 1 indicates a
likely event.
7.SP.6 Approximate the probability of a chance event by collecting data on the chance process
that produces it and observing its long-run relative frequency, and predict the approximate
relative frequency given the probability. For example, when rolling a number cube 600
times, predict that a 3 or 6 would be rolled roughly 200 times, but probably not exactly
200 times.
7.SP.8 Find probabilities of compound events using organized lists, tables, tree diagrams, and
simulation.
a. Understand that, just as with simple events, the probability of a compound event is
the fraction of outcomes in the sample space for which the compound event occurs.
b. Represent sample spaces for compound events using methods such as organized
lists, tables and tree diagrams. For an event described in everyday language (e.g.,
“rolling double sixes”), identify the outcomes in the sample space which compose
the event.
c. Design and use a simulation to generate frequencies for compound events. For
example, use random digits as a simulation tool to approximate the answer to the
question: If 40% of donors have type A blood, what is the probability that it will
take at least 4 donors to find one with type A blood?
8.G.1 Verify experimentally the properties of rotations, reflections, and translations:
a. Lines are taken to lines, and line segments to line segments of the same length.
b. Angles are taken to angles of the same measure.
c. Parallel lines are taken to parallel lines.
8.G.2 Understand that a two-dimensional figure is congruent to another if the second can be
obtained from the first by a sequence of rotations, reflections, and translations; given two
congruent figures, describe a sequence that exhibits the congruence between them.
8.G.3 Describe the effect of dilations, translations, rotations, and reflections on two-dimensional
figures using coordinates.
8.G.4 Understand that a two-dimensional figure is similar to another if the second can be
obtained from the first by a sequence of rotations, reflections, translations, and dilations;
given two similar two-dimensional figures, describe a sequence that exhibits the similarity
between them.
8.G.5 Use informal arguments to establish facts about the angle sum and exterior angle of
triangles, about the angles created when parallel lines are cut by a transversal, and the
angle-angle criterion for similarity of triangles. For example, arrange three copies of the
same triangle so that the sum of the three angles appears to form a line, and give an
argument in terms of transversals why this is so.
8.G.6 Explain a proof of the Pythagorean Theorem and its converse.

Standards
8.NS.1 Know that numbers that are not rational are called irrational. Understand informally that
every number has a decimal expansion; for rational numbers show that the decimal
expansion repeats eventually, and convert a decimal expansion, which repeats eventually
into a rational number.
8.NS.2 Use rational approximations of irrational numbers to compare the size of irrational
numbers, locate them approximately on a number line diagram, and estimate the value of
expressions (e.g., π2). For example, by truncating the decimal expansion of √2, show that
√2 is between 1 and 2, then between 1.4 and 1.5, and explain how to continue on to get
better approximations.
8.EE.1 Know and apply the properties of integer exponents to generate equivalent numerical
expressions. For example, 32 × 3
–5 = 3
–3 = 1/3
3 = 1/27.
8.EE.2 Use square root and cube root symbols to represent solutions to equations of the form x2 =
p and x3 = p, where p is a positive rational number. Evaluate square roots of small perfect
squares and cube roots of small perfect cubes. Know that √2 is irrational.
8.EE.3 Use numbers expressed in the form of a single digit times an integer power of 10 to
estimate very large or very small quantities, and to express how many times as much one
is than the other. For example, estimate the population of the United States as 3 × 108 and
the population of the world as 7 × 109, and determine that the world population is more
than 20 times larger.
8.EE.4 Perform operations with numbers expressed in scientific notation, including problems
where both decimal and scientific notation are used. Use scientific notation and choose
units of appropriate size for measurements of very large or very small quantities (e.g., use
millimeters per year for seafloor spreading). Interpret scientific notation that has been
generated by technology.
8.EE.7 Solve linear equations in one variable.
a. Give examples of linear equations in one variable with one solution, infinitely
many solutions, or no solutions. Show which of these possibilities is the case by
successively transforming the given equation into simpler forms, until an
equivalent equation of the form x = a, a = a, or a = b results (where a and b are
different numbers).
b. Solve linear equations with rational number coefficients, including equations
whose solutions require expanding expressions using the distributive property and
collecting like terms.

8.EE.5 Graph proportional relationships, interpreting the unit rate as the slope of the graph.
Compare two different proportional relationships represented in different ways. For
example, compare a distance-time graph to a distance-time equation to determine which of
two moving objects has greater speed.
8.EE.6 Use similar triangles to explain why the slope m is the same between any two distinct
points on a non-vertical line in the coordinate plane; derive the equation y = mx for a line
through the origin and the equation y = mx + b for a line intercepting the vertical axis at b.
8.EE.8 Analyze and solve pairs of simultaneous linear equations.
a. Understand that solutions to a system of two linear equations in two variables
correspond to points of intersection of their graphs, because points of intersection
satisfy both equations simultaneously.
b. Solve systems of two linear equations in two variables algebraically, and estimate
solutions by graphing the equations. Solve simple cases by inspection. For
example, 3x + 2y = 5 and 3x + 2y = 6 have no solution because 3x + 2y cannot
simultaneously be 5 and 6.

line; give examples of functions that are not linear. For example, the function A = s2 giving
the area of a square as a function of its side length is not linear because its graph contains
the points (1,1), (2,4) and (3,9), which are not on a straight line.

Understand the concept of a function and use functions notation F.IF.1 - Understand that a function from one set (called the domain) to another set (called the range) assigns to each element of the domain exactly one element of the range. If f is a function and x is an element of its domain, then f(x) denotes the output of f corresponding to the input x. The graph of f is the graph of the equation y = f(x). F.IF.2 - Use function notation, evaluate functions for inputs in their domains, and interpret statements that use function notation in terms of a context. F.IF.3 - Recognize that sequences are functions, sometimes defined recursively, whose domain is a subset of the integers. For example, the Fibonacci sequence is defined recursively by f(0) = f(1) = 1, f(n+1) = f(n) + f(n-1) for n ≥ 1. Students should experience a variety of types of situations modeled by functions. Detailed analysis of any particular class of functions at this stage is not advised. Students should apply these concepts throughout their future mathematics courses. Draw examples from linear and exponential functions. Draw connection between F.IF.3 and F.BF.2 which required students to write arithmetic and geometric sequences. Emphasize arithmetic and geometric sequences as examples of linear and exponential functions. Interpret functions that arise in applications in terms of a context F.IF.4 - For a function that models a relationship between two quantities, interpret key
features of graphs and tables in terms of the quantities, and sketch graphs showing key features given a verbal description of the relationship. Key features include: intercepts; intervals where the function is increasing, decreasing, positive, or negative; relative maximums and minimums; symmetries; end behavior; and periodicity. Focus on linear and exponential functions. F.IF.6 - Calculate and interpret the average rate of change of a function (presented
symbolically or as a table) over a specified interval. Estimate the rate of change from a graph. Focus on linear functions and exponential functions whose domain is a subset of the integers. Analyze functions using different representations F.IF.7 - Graph functions expressed symbolically and show key features of the graph, by hand in simple cases and using technology for more complicated cases. Focus on linear and exponential functions. Include comparisons of two functions presented algebraically. For example, compare the growth of two linear functions, or two exponential functions.
a. Graph linear and quadratic functions and show intercepts, maxima, and minima. F.IF.9 - Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way
(algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions). For example, given a graph of one quadratic function and an algebraic expression for another, say which has the larger maximum.

Interpret functions that arise in applications in terms of a context F.IF.5 - Relate the domain of a function to its graph and, where applicable, to the quantitative relationship it describes. For example, if the function h(n) gives the number of person-hours it takes to assemble n engines in a factory, then the positive integers would be an appropriate domain for the function.

Emphasize the similarity of all circles. Note that by similarity of sectors with the same central angle, arc lengths are proportional to the radius. Use this as a basis for introducing radian as a unit of measure. It is not intended that it be applied to the development of circular trigonometry in this course.

Use coordinates to prove simple geometric theorems algebraically G.GPE.4 - Use coordinates to prove simple geometric theorems algebraically. For example, prove or disprove that a figure defined by four given points in the coordinate plane is a rectangle; prove or disprove that the point (1, √3) lies on the circle centered at the origin and containing the point (0,2). Include simple proofs involving circles. Apply geometric concepts in modeling situations G.MG.1 - Use geometric shapes, their measures, and their properties to describe objects

Understand independence and conditional probability and use them to interpret data. S.CP.1 - Describe events as subsets of a sample space (the set of outcomes) using
characteristics (or categories) of the outcomes, or as unions, intersections, or complements of other events (“or,” “and,” “not”). S.CP.2 - Understand that two events A and B are independent if the probability of A and B occurring together is the product of their probabilities, and use this characterization to

determine if they are independent. S.CP.3 - Understand the conditional probability of A given B as P(A and B)/P(B), and
interpret independence of A and B as saying that the conditional probability of A given B is the same as the probability of A, and the conditional probability of B given A is the same as the probability of B. S.CP.4 - Construct and interpret two-way frequency tables of data when two categories are
associated with each object being classified. Use the two-way table as a sample space to decide if events are independent and to approximate conditional probabilities. For example, collect data from a random sample of students in your school on their favorite subject among math, science, and English. Estimate the probability that a randomly selected student from your school will favor science given that the student is in tenth grade. Do the same for other subjects and compare the results. S.CP.5 - Recognize and explain the concepts of conditional probability and independence in everyday language and everyday situations. For example, compare the chance of having lung cancer if you are a smoker with the chance of being a smoker if you have lung cancer. Build on work with two-way tables from Algebra I Unit 3 (S.ID.5) to develop understanding of conditional probability and independence. Use the rules of probability to compute probabilities of compound events in a uniform probability model S.CP.6 - Find the conditional probability of A given B as the fraction of B’s outcomes that
also belong to A, and interpret the answer in terms of the model. S.CP.7 - Apply the Addition Rule, P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(A and B), and interpret the
answer in terms of the model. S.CP.8 - (+) Apply the general Multiplication Rule in a uniform probability model, P(A and
B) = P(A)P(B|A) = P(B)P(A|B), and interpret the answer in terms of the model. S.CP.9 - (+) Use permutations and combinations to compute probabilities of compound
events and solve problems. Use probability to evaluate outcomes of decisions S.MD.6 - (+) Use probabilities to make fair decisions (e.g., drawing by lots, using a random
number generator). S.MD.7- (+) Analyze decisions and strategies using probability concepts (e.g., product
testing, medical testing, pulling a hockey goalie at the end of a game). This unit sets the stage for work in Algebra II, where the ideas of statistical inference are introduced. Evaluating the risks associated with conclusions drawn from sample data (i.e. incomplete information) requires an understanding of probability concepts.

Perform arithmetic operations with complex numbers N.CN.1 - Know there is a complex number i such that i
2 = −1, and every complex number
has the form a + bi with a and b real. N.CN.2 - Use the relation i
2 = –1 and the commutative, associative, and distributive
properties to add, subtract, and multiply complex numbers. Use complex numbers in polynomial identities and equations N.CN.7 – Solve quadratic equations with real coefficients that have complex solutions. Interpret the structure of expressions A.SSE.1- Interpret expressions that represent a quantity in terms of its context. Extend to polynomial and rational expressions.

n as the product of P and a factor not depending
on P.
A.SSE.2 - Use the structure of an expression to identify ways to rewrite it. For example, see x

2)2, thus recognizing it as a difference of squares that can be factored as
(x2 – y

the remainder on division by x – a is p(a), so p(a) = 0 if and only if (x – a) is a factor of p(x). A.APR.3 - Identify zeros of polynomials when suitable factorizations are available, and use the zeros to construct a rough graph of the function defined by the polynomial. Use polynomial identities to solve problems A.APR.4 - Prove polynomial identities and use them to describe numerical relationships. For example, the polynomial identity (x
2 + y
2)2 = (x
2 – y
2)2 + (2xy)
2 can be used to generate
Pythagorean triples. Rewrite rational expressions A.APR.6 - Rewrite simple rational expressions in different forms; write a(x)/b(x) in the form
q(x) + r(x)/b(x), where a(x), b(x), q(x), and r(x) are polynomials with the degree of r(x) less than the degree of b(x), using inspection, long division, or, for the more complicated examples, a computer algebra system. A.REI.11- Explain why the x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of the
equations y = f(x) and y = g(x) intersect are the solutions of the equation f(x) = g(x); find the solutions approximately, e.g., using technology to graph the functions, make tables of values, or find successive approximations. Include cases where f(x) and/or g(x) are linear, polynomial, rational, absolute value, exponential, and logarithmic functions.
Include combinations of linear, polynomial, rational, radical, absolute value, and exponential functions. Create equations that describe numbers or relationships. A.CED.1 - Create equations and inequalities in one variable and use them to solve problems. Include equations arising from linear and quadratic functions, and simple rational and exponential functions. A.CED.2 - Create equations in two or more variables to represent relationships between
quantities; graph equations on coordinate axes with labels and scales. A.CED.3 - Represent constraints by equations or inequalities, and by systems of equations
and/or inequalities, and interpret solutions as viable or nonviable options in a modeling context. For example, represent inequalities describing nutritional and cost constraints on combinations of different foods. A.CED.4 - Rearrange formulas to highlight a quantity of interest, using the same reasoning
as in solving equations. For example, rearrange Ohm’s law V = IR to highlight resistance R. For A.CED.1, use all available types of functions to create such equations, including root functions, but constrain to simple cases. While functions used in A.CED.2, 3, and 4 will often be linear, exponential, or quadratic the types of problems should draw from more complex situations than those addressed in Algebra I. For example, finding the equation of a line through a given point perpendicular to another line allows one to find the distance

features of graphs and tables in terms of the quantities, and sketch graphs showing key features given a verbal description of the relationship. Key features include: intercepts; intervals where the function is increasing, decreasing, positive, or negative; relative maximums and minimums; symmetries; end behavior; and periodicity. F.IF.5 - Relate the domain of a function to its graph and, where applicable, to the quantitative relationship it describes. For example, if the function h(n) gives the number of person-hours it takes to assemble n engines in a factory, then the positive integers would be an appropriate domain for the function. F.IF.6 - Calculate and interpret the average rate of change of a function (presented symbolically or as a table) over a specified interval. Estimate the rate of change from a graph. Focus on linear functions and exponential functions whose domain is a subset of the integers. Emphasize the selection of a model function based on behavior of data and context. Analyze functions using different representations F.IF.7 - Graph functions expressed symbolically and show key features of the graph, by
hand in simple cases and using technology for more complicated cases. b. Graph square root, cube root, and piecewise-defined functions, including step functions
and absolute value functions.
c. Graph polynomial functions, identifying zeros when suitable factorizations are available, and showing end behavior.
Relate F.IF.7c to the relationship between zeros of quadratic functions and their factored form. e. Graph exponential and logarithmic functions, showing intercepts and end behavior, and trigonometric functions, showing period, midline, and amplitude. F.IF.8 - Write a function defined by an expression in different but equivalent forms to reveal
and explain different properties of the function. F.IF.9 - Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way
(algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions). For example, given a graph of one quadratic function and an algebraic expression for another, say which has the larger maximum. Focus on applications and how key features relate to characteristics of a situation, making selection of a particular type of function model appropriate.

a procedure is not appropriate. Use calculators, spreadsheets, and tables to estimate areas under the normal curve. While students may have heard of the normal distribution, it is unlikely that they will have prior experience using it to make specific estimates. Build on students’ understanding of data distributions to help them see how the normal distribution uses area to make estimates of frequencies (which can be expressed as probabilities). Emphasize that only some data are well described by a normal distribution. Understand and evaluate random processes underlying statistical experiments S.IC.1 - Understand statistics as a process for making inferences about population parameters based on a random sample from that population. S.IC.2 - Decide if a specified model is consistent with results from a given data-generating process, e.g., using simulation. For example, a model says a spinning coin falls heads up with probability 0.5. Would a result of 5 tails in a row cause you to question the model? For S.IC.2, include comparing theoretical and empirical results to evaluate the effectiveness of a treatment. Make inferences and justify conclusions from sample surveys, experiments, and observational studies S.IC.3 - Recognize the purposes of and differences among sample surveys, experiments, and observational studies; explain how randomization relates to each. S.IC.4 - Use data from a sample survey to estimate a population mean or proportion; develop a margin of error through the use of simulation models for random sampling. S.IC.5 - Use data from a randomized experiment to compare two treatments; use simulations to decide if differences between parameters are significant. S.IC.6 - Evaluate reports based on data. In earlier grades, students are introduced to different ways of collecting data and use graphical displays and summary statistics to make comparisons. These ideas are revisited with a focus on how the way in which data is collected determines the scope and nature of the conclusions that can be drawn from that data. The concept of statistical significance is developed informally through simulation as meaning a result that is unlikely to have occurred solely as a result of random selection in sampling or random assignment in an experiment. For S.IC.4 and 5, focus on the variability of results from experiments - that is, focus on statistics as a way of dealing with, not eliminating, inherent randomness.

NCSD Math Vocabulary
Research by Marzano indicates that the importance of direct vocabulary instruction cannot be overstated. Vocabulary provides essential background knowledge and is linked to academic achievement. NCSD Math Curriculum Committee members worked to create a vertically aligned vocabulary progression for which key terms were identified and labeled as critical or supporting. Critical vocabulary words are those words that all students are expected to master by the end of the grade and will appear on common assessments. Based on research about vocabulary acquisition, committee members attempted to limit the number of Tier 3 critical math vocabulary to fewer than 30 words. Supporting vocabulary words are those words students should be exposed to throughout the year. The purpose of this work is to focus instruction and provide guidance to teachers. Teachers will be asked to provide feedback in order to guide to revision of these lists. The following table includes the critical Tier 3 vocabulary words that students should master by the end of the school year.

Common Core State Standards for Mathematics Resources and Visuals
Natrona County School District Mathematics Curriculum
Back to Table of Contents Page 139 of 146, Revised by committee June 2015
Standards of Mathematical Practice Math Practice Standard 1: Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. Mathematically proficient students start by explaining to themselves the meaning of a problem and looking for entry points to its solution. They analyze givens, constraints, relationships, and goals. They make conjectures about the form and meaning of the solution and plan a solution pathway rather than simply jumping into a solution attempt. They consider analogous problems, and try special cases and simpler forms of the original problem in order to gain insight into its solution. They monitor and evaluate their progress and change course if necessary. Older students might, depending on the context of the problem, transform algebraic expressions or change the viewing window on their graphing calculator to get the information they need. Mathematically proficient students can explain correspondences between equations, verbal descriptions, tables, and graphs or draw diagrams of important features and relationships, graph data, and search for regularity or trends. Younger students might rely on using concrete objects or pictures to help conceptualize and solve a problem. Mathematically proficient students check their answers to problems using a different method, and they continually ask themselves, "Does this make sense?" They can understand the approaches of others to solving complex problems and identify correspondences between different approaches. Math Practice Standard 2: Reason abstractly and quantitatively. Mathematically proficient students make sense of quantities and their relationships in problem situations. They bring two complementary abilities to bear on problems involving quantitative relationships: the ability to decontextualize—to abstract a given situation and represent it symbolically and manipulate the representing symbols as if they have a life of their own, without necessarily attending to their referents—and the ability to contextualize, to pause as needed during the manipulation process in order to probe into the referents for the symbols involved. Quantitative reasoning entails habits of creating a coherent representation of the problem at hand; considering the units involved; attending to the meaning of quantities, not just how to compute them; and knowing and flexibly using different properties of operations and objects. Math Practice Standard 3: Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. Mathematically proficient students understand and use stated assumptions, definitions, and previously established results in constructing arguments. They make conjectures and build a logical progression of statements to explore the truth of their conjectures. They are able to analyze situations by breaking them into cases, and can recognize and use counterexamples. They justify their conclusions, communicate them to others, and respond to the arguments of others. They reason inductively about data, making plausible arguments that take into account the context from which the data arose. Mathematically proficient students are also able to compare the effectiveness of two plausible arguments, distinguish correct logic or reasoning from that which is flawed, and—if there is a flaw in an argument—explain what it is. Elementary students can construct arguments using concrete referents such as objects, drawings, diagrams, and actions. Such arguments can make sense and be correct, even though they are not generalized or made formal until later grades. Later, students learn to determine
Natrona County School District Mathematics Curriculum
Back to Table of Contents Page 140 of 146, Revised by committee June 2015
domains to which an argument applies. Students at all grades can listen or read the arguments of others, decide whether they make sense, and ask useful questions to clarify or improve the arguments. Math Practice Standard 4: Model with mathematics. Mathematically proficient students can apply the mathematics they know to solve problems arising in everyday life, society, and the workplace. In early grades, this might be as simple as writing an addition equation to describe a situation. In middle grades, a student might apply proportional reasoning to plan a school event or analyze a problem in the community. By high school, a student might use geometry to solve a design problem or use a function to describe how one quantity of interest depends on another. Mathematically proficient students who can apply what they know are comfortable making assumptions and approximations to simplify a complicated situation, realizing that these may need revision later. They are able to identify important quantities in a practical situation and map their relationships using such tools as diagrams, two-way tables, graphs, flowcharts and formulas. They can analyze those relationships mathematically to draw conclusions. They routinely interpret their mathematical results in the context of the situation and reflect on whether the results make sense, possibly improving the model if it has not served its purpose. Math Practice Standard 5: Use appropriate tools strategically. Mathematically proficient students consider the available tools when solving a mathematical problem. These tools might include pencil and paper, concrete models, a ruler, a protractor, a calculator, a spreadsheet, a computer algebra system, a statistical package, or dynamic geometry software. Proficient students are sufficiently familiar with tools appropriate for their grade or course to make sound decisions about when each of these tools might be helpful, recognizing both the insight to be gained and their limitations. For example, mathematically proficient high school students analyze graphs of functions and solutions generated using a graphing calculator. They detect possible errors by strategically using estimation and other mathematical knowledge. When making mathematical models, they know that technology can enable them to visualize the results of varying assumptions, explore consequences, and compare predictions with data. Mathematically proficient students at various grade levels are able to identify relevant external mathematical resources, such as digital content located on a website, and use them to pose or solve problems. They are able to use technological tools to explore and deepen their understanding of concepts. Math Practice Standard 6: Attend to precision. Mathematically proficient students try to communicate precisely to others. They try to use clear definitions in discussion with others and in their own reasoning. They state the meaning of the symbols they choose, including using the equal sign consistently and appropriately. They are careful about specifying units of measure, and labeling axes to clarify the correspondence with quantities in a problem. They calculate accurately and efficiently, express numerical answers with a degree of precision appropriate for the problem context. In the elementary grades, students give carefully formulated explanations to each other. By the time they reach high school they have learned to examine claims and make explicit use of definitions.
Natrona County School District Mathematics Curriculum
Back to Table of Contents Page 141 of 146, Revised by committee June 2015
Math Practice Standard 7: Look for and make use of structure. Mathematically proficient students look closely to discern a pattern or structure. Young students, for example, might notice that three and seven more is the same amount as seven and three more, or they may sort a collection of shapes according to how many sides the shapes have. Later, students will see 7 × 8 equals the well remembered 7 × 5 + 7 × 3, in preparation for learning about the distributive property. In the expression x2 + 9x + 14, older students can see the 14 as 2 × 7 and the 9 as 2 + 7. They recognize the significance of an existing line in a geometric figure and can use the strategy of drawing an auxiliary line for solving problems. They also can step back for an overview and shift perspective. They can see complicated things, such as some algebraic expressions, as single objects or as being composed of several objects. For example, they can see 5 - 3(x -y)2 as 5 minus a positive number times a square and use that to realize that its value cannot be more than 5 for any real numbers x and y. Math Practice Standard 8: Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. Mathematically proficient students notice if calculations are repeated, and look both for general methods and for shortcuts. Upper elementary students might notice when dividing 25 by 11 that they are repeating the same calculations over and over again, and conclude they have a repeating decimal. By paying attention to the calculation of slope as they repeatedly check whether points are on the line through (1, 2) with slope 3, middle school students might abstract the equation (y - 2)/(x - 1) = 3. Noticing the regularity in the way terms cancel when expanding (x - 1)(x + 1), (x - 1)(x2 + x + 1), and (x - 1)(x3 + x2 + x + 1) might lead them to the general formula for the sum of a geometric series. As they work to solve a problem, mathematically proficient students maintain oversight of the process, while attending to the details. They continually evaluate the reasonableness of their intermediate results.

Crosswalk of Common Core Instructional Shifts: Mathematics Both the 6 instructional shifts articulated by the NY State Department of Education and the 3 instructional shifts outlined by Student Achievement Partners help educators understand the major changes required by the Common Core in terms of curricular materials and classroom instruction in Mathematics.
1: Focus: Teachers use the power of the eraser and significantly narrow and deepen the scope of how time and energy is spent in the math classroom. They do so in order to focus deeply on only the concepts that are prioritized in the standards so that students reach strong foundational knowledge and deep conceptual understanding and are able to transfer mathematical skills and understanding across concepts and grades.
2: Coherence: Think across grades, and link to major topics within grades
1: Focus strongly where the Standards focus
3 Shifts: Student Achievement Partners www.achievethecore.org
6 Shifts: EngageNY www.engageny.org
2: Coherence: Principals and teachers carefully connect the learning within and across grades so that, for example, fractions or multiplication spiral across grade levels and students can build new understanding onto foundations built in previous years. Teachers can begin to count on deep conceptual understanding of core content and build on it. Each standard is not a new event, but an extension of previous learning.
3: Rigor: Require fluency, application, and deep understanding
6: Dual Intensity: Students are practicing and understanding. There is more than a balance between these two things in the classroom – both are occurring with intensity. Teachers create opportunities for students to participate in “drills” and make use of those skills through extended application of math concepts. The amount of time and energy spent practicing and understanding learning environments is driven by the specific mathematical concept and therefore, varies throughout the given school year.
4: Deep Understanding: Teachers teach more than “how to get the answer” and instead support students’ ability to access concepts from a number of perspectives so that students are able to see math as more than a set of mnemonics or discrete procedures. Students demonstrate deep conceptual understanding of core math concepts by applying them to new situations as well as writing and speaking about their understanding.
5: Application: Students are expected to use math and choose the appropriate concept for application even when they are not prompted to do so. Teachers provide opportunities at all grade levels for students to apply math concepts in “real world” situations. Teachers in content areas outside of math, particularly science, ensure that students are using math – at all grade levels – to make meaning of and access content.
3: Fluency: Students are expected to have speed and accuracy with simple calculations; teachers structure class time and/or homework time for students to memorize, through repetition, core functions (found in the attached list of fluencies) such as multiplication tables so that they are more able to understand and manipulate more complex concepts.

District Guaranteed & Viable Curriculum The District’s guaranteed & viable curriculum is identified as the learning curriculum that guarantees an equal
opportunity for the learning for all students. It also guaranteed adequate time for educators to teach content and for students to learn it. It guarantees that the curriculum being taught is the same curriculum that will be assessed. It is viable when adequate time is ensured to teach all determined essential content. The district’s curriculum is composed of identified learning components that are the essential learning that students must know or do in order to perform at the mastery level of the identified standards.
State & District Content Standards The state & district content standards are the minimum content expectations that students must meet as defined by the
state board of education. They provide a common understanding among educators as to what students should learn at particular grades. The standards are not the curriculum.
District Vertical Pacing Guide A district vertical Pacing Guide is the purposeful sequencing of a subject area’s route for teaching and learning
expectations across multiple developmental stages, ages or vertical grade levels. The progressions illustrate progress toward the mastery of content skills as students move throughout their K-12 learning experience. The exiting stage is defined as college and career readiness for the graduate.
District Grade Level Pacing Guide A district grade-level pacing guide is the district timeline for logical and progressive sequencing showing what a grade level content area should master over the course of an academic school year. Pacing guides include the timeline for interim benchmark assessments and summative grade level assessments for the district and/or the state.
