Students refine their estimates to the tenths place using squaring strategies and number sense.
Students explore geometric similarity through art and tessellations, applying ratios and proportional parts to create scaled masterpieces.
Students learn to apply Sine, Cosine, and Tangent to real-world measurements and abstract artistic design, culminating in a dual-phase project.
A hands-on geometry lesson where students explore the mathematical properties of circles through real-world measurement and creative geometric art design. Students discover the relationship between circumference and diameter while applying area formulas to their own masterpieces.
This lesson focuses on practical math applications in a retail setting, covering decimals, percentages, and basic arithmetic with a focus on money management.
A cumulative milestone assessment designed for students at Grade 6 proficiency (RIT 221-230). This assessment checks foundational understanding of ratios, expressions, and geometry needed for 8th-grade success.
Week 7 analyzes bivariate data through scatter plots, interpreting lines of best fit, and using linear models to make predictions.
Week 6 focuses on rigid transformations (translations, reflections, rotations) and similarity transformations (dilations).
Week 5 reviews the Pythagorean Theorem and volume formulas for cylinders, cones, and spheres.
Week 4 explores integer exponent rules, perfect squares and cubes, and distinguishing between rational and irrational numbers.
