Building
upon knowledge and skills gained in preceding
grades,
by the end of Grade 5, students will:
Standard 4.3
(Patterns
and Algebra) All students will represent and analyze
relationships among variable quantities and solve
problems involving patterns, functions, and algebraic
concepts and processes.
Standard 4.3.5.A
Patterns
Standard 4.3.5.A.1
Recognize,
describe, extend, and create patterns involving
whole numbers.
· Descriptions using tables, verbal rules,
simple equations, and graphs
Standard 4.3.5.B
Functions
and Relationships
Standard 4.3.5.B.1
Describe
arithmetic operations as functions, including combining
operations and reversing them.
Standard 4.3.5.B.2
Graph
points satisfying a function from T-charts, from
verbal rules, and from simple equations.
Standard 4.3.5.C
Modeling
Standard 4.3.5.C.1
Use
number sentences to model situations.
· Using variables to represent unknown quantities
· Using concrete materials, tables, graphs,
verbal rules, algebraic expressions/equations
Standard 4.3.5.C.2
Draw
freehand sketches of graphs that model real phenomena
and use such graphs to predict and interpret events.
· Changes over time
· Rates of change (e.g., when is plant growing
slowly/rapidly, when is temperature dropping
most rapidly/slowly)
Standard 4.3.5.D
Procedures
