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.

It is a ratios and proportionals example for sixth grade. It is a picture of El Castillo's steps and the objective is to solve a question about how high off the ground would 51 steps be? It requires using a ratio table to solve.

This task provides an opportunity to work on the Standard for Mathematical Practice 3 Construct Viable Arguments and Critique the Reasoning of Others.

This interactive web tool and lesson helps students count large numbers of things by using the mathematical structures of area and proportionality. Students use a ratio table to keep track of their work as they count the number of tiles required to cover a floor, and the time required to put those tiles in place.

An application of fractions with ties to culinary careers and life skills in the upper elementary grades.

This series of 5 word problems lead up to the final problem. Most students should be able to answer the first two questions without too much difficulty. The decimal numbers may cause some students trouble, but if they make a drawing of the road that the girls are riding on, and their positions at the different times, it may help. The third question has a bit of a challenge in that students won't land on the exact meeting time by making a table with distance values every hour. The fourth question addresses a useful concept for problems involving objects moving at different speeds which may be new to sixth grade students.

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.
