Math Unit 9 & 11
Unit 9
Will focus on the links between fractions, decimals and percents names for numbers, with a special emphasis on percents. The students will begin with practice converting among fractions, decimals, and percents. Students then use grid pictures, the multiplication rule for renaming fractions, memorization of simple conversions, and a calculator for more complex conversions. Finally, students begin to apply whole-number multiplication and division algorithms to multiplication and division with decimals in the last two lessons of Unit 9.
Unit 9 has three main areas of focus:
*Equivalencies among fractions, decimals, and percents
*reinforce the use of a data table, survey data, and rank and compare data reported as percents
*introduce multiplication and division of decimals by whole numbers
Unit 11
Unit 11 begins with a review of weight that leads into a discussion about the relationship between weight and capacity. Students will review properties of geometric solids and explore concepts and units of volume. Subtraction of negative and positive integers will also be introduced in Unit 11.
Unit 11 has four main areas of focus:
* To review grams and ounces as units of weight and mass,
* To identify geometric solids, given their properties,
* To review concepts and units of capacity and volume, and
* To introduce subtraction involving positive and negative integers.
The skills’ groups are as follows for both Units 9 and 11:
