This is a task from the Illustrative Mathematics website that is one part of a complete illustration of the standard to which it is aligned. Each task has at least one solution and some commentary that addresses important asects of the task and its potential use. Here are the first few lines of the commentary for this task: The vertices of eight polygons are given below. For each polygon: * Plot the points in the coordinate plane connect the points in the order that they a...

This Essential Learning document highlights those Common Core Standards identified for sixth grade as the priority standards for the year. It also documents the necessary prerequisite skills for each of the identified Essential Standards, when it will be taught within the IM curriculum and how it will be assessed.

This task is primarily about volume and surface area, although it also gives students an early look at converting between measurements in scale models and the real objects they correspond to.

This lesson unit is intended to help teachers assess how well students are able to: Select appropriate mathematical methods to use for an unstructured problem; interpret a problem situation, identifying constraints and variables, and specify assumptions; work with 2- and 3-dimensional shapes to solve a problem involving capacity and surface area; and communicate their reasoning clearly.

This Check Your Readiness Assessment is used in conjunction with the Illustrative Mathematics Curriculum. It breaks down identifying the Essential Standard associated. This assessment should be utilized with the uploaded rubric to determine levels of prerequisite skills when beginning a new unit and allow for placement of interventions.

This Check Your Readiness Rubric is used in conjunction with the Illustrative Mathematics Curriculum. It breaks down each question by identifying the Essential Standard associated and then defining what an Advanced, Proficient, Basic or Below Basic student response would entail. This rubric can then be utilized to determine levels of prerequisite skills when beginning a new unit and allow for placement of interventions.

This End of Unit Assessment is used in conjunction with the Illustrative Mathematics Curriculum.There is an included of multiple choice and open ended questions. This aligns to the rubric also included at the end of the assessment. This End of Unit Assessment Rubric is used in conjunction with the Illustrative Mathematics Curriculum. It breaks down each question by identifying the Essential Standard associated and then defining what an Advanced, Proficient, Basic or Below Basic student response would entail. This rubric can then be utilized for students to track progress towards proficiency on each of the grade level standards.

Professional Development Resource to support the implementation of a high-quality math resource (Math Expressions, 2018), and provide professional learning around the Geometry Progressions.  This professional learning is appropriate for all levels of math educators but focuses on math education for grades 5-8.  It provides educators an opportunity to develop a deeper understanding and make connections to their own grade level Geometry standards. 

This lesson unit is intended to help you assess how well students are able to: Perform arithmetic operations, including those involving whole-number exponents, recognizing and applying the conventional order of operations; Write and evaluate numerical expressions from diagrammatic representations and be able to identify equivalent expressions; apply the distributive and commutative properties appropriately; and use the method for finding areas of compound rectangles.

This lesson unit is intended to help sixth grade teachers assess how well students are able to: Analyze a realistic situation mathematically; construct sight lines to decide which areas of a room are visible or hidden from a camera; find and compare areas of triangles and quadrilaterals; and calculate and compare percentages and/or fractions of areas.

The purpose of this task is to provide students an opportunity to use mathematics addressed in different standards in the same problem.
