6.NS.2 Fluently divide multi-digit numbers using the standard algorithm. 22 8
6.NS.3 Fluently add, subtract, multiply, and divide multi-digit decimals using the 6, 28 9, 10
standard algorithmfor each operation.
6.NS.4 Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers less than or equal to
100 and the least common multiple of two whole numbers less than or equal
to 12. Use the distributive property to express a sum of two whole numbers 16 11
1–100 with a common factor as a multiple of a sum of two whole numbers
with no common factor. For example, express 36 1 8 as 4(9 1 2).
6.NS.5 Understand that positive and negative numbers are used together to describe
quantities having opposite directions or values (e.g., temperature above/below
zero, elevation above/below sea level, credits/debits, positive/negative electric 25 12, 13
charge); use positive and negative numbers to represent quantities in real-
world contexts, explaining the meaning of 0 in each situation.
6.NS.6 Understand a rational number as a point on the number line. Extend number
line diagrams and coordinate axes familiar from previous grades to represent 1, 19, 20, 55, 56, 62 12, 14
points on the line and in the plane with negative number coordinates.
6.NS.6.a Recognize opposite signs of numbers as indicating locations
on opposite sides of 0 on the number line; recognize that the 1, 55 12
opposite of the opposite of a number is the number itself,
e.g., 2(23) 5 3, and that 0 is its own opposite.
6.NS.6.b Understand signs of numbers in ordered pairs as indicating
locations in quadrants of the coordinate plane; recognize that 19, 56 14
when two ordered pairs differ only by signs, the locations of the
points are related by reflections across one or both axes.
6.NS.6.c Find and position integers and other rational numbers on a
horizontal or vertical number line diagram; find and position pairs 20, 62 12, 14
of integers and other rational numbers on a coordinate plane.
6.NS.7 Understand ordering and absolute value of rational numbers. 4, 27, 57, 59, 73 13
6.NS.7.a Interpret statements of inequality as statements about the relative
position of two numbers on a number line diagram. For example, 27 13
interpret 23 . 27 as a statement that 23 is located to the right of
27 on a number line oriented from left to right.
6.NS.7.b Write, interpret, and explain statements of order for rational
numbers in real-world contexts. For example, write 238C . 278C 59 13
to express the fact that 238C is warmer than 278C.
6.NS.7.c Understand the absolute value of a rational number as its distance
from 0 on the number line; interpret absolute value as magnitude
for a positive or negative quantity in a real-world situation. For 4, 73 13
example, for an account balance of 230 dollars, write |230| 5 30 to
describe the size of the debt in dollars.
6.NS.7.d Distinguish comparisons of absolute value from statements about
order. For example, recognize that an account balance less than 57 13
230 dollars represents a debt greater than 30 dollars.
6.NS.8 Solve real-world and mathematical problems by graphing points in all four
quadrants of the coordinate plane. Include use of coordinates and absolute 14, 76 14
value to find distances between points with the same first coordinate or the
same second coordinate.

Item Numbers Lesson(s)
Expressions and Equations
6.EE.1 Write and evaluate numerical expressions involving whole-number 29, 30, 39, 65 15
exponents.
6.EE.2 Write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers. 17, 24, 58, 61, 67 16
6.EE.2.a Write expressions that record operations with numbers and with
letters standing for numbers. For example, express the calculation 58 16
“Subtract y from 5” as 5 2 y.
6.EE.2.b Identify parts of an expression using mathematical terms (sum,
term, product, factor, quotient, coefficient); view one or more
parts of an expression as a single entity. For example, describe the 24, 61 16
expression 2(8 1 7) as a product of two factors; view (8 1 7) as both
a single entity and a sum of two terms.
6.EE.2.c Evaluate expressions at specific values of their variables. Include
expressions that arise from formulas used in real-world problems.
Perform arithmetic operations, including those involving whole-
number exponents, in the conventional order when there are no 17, 67 16
parentheses to specify a particular order (Order of Operations).
For example, use the formulas V 5 s3 and A 5 6s2 to find the volume
and surface area of a cube with sides of length s 5 1 .
··
2
6.EE.3 pply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. For
A
example, apply the distributive property to the expression 3(2 1 x) to produce
the equivalent expression 6 1 3x; apply the distributive property to the expression 2, 36, 44 17
24x 1 18y to produce the equivalent expression 6(4x 1 3y); apply properties of
operations to y 1 y 1 y to produce the equivalent expression 3y.
6.EE.4 Identify when two expressions are equivalent (i.e., when the two expressions
name the same number regardless of which value is substituted into them). 49 17
For example, the expressions y 1 y 1 y and 3y are equivalent because they name
the same number regardless of which number y stands for.
6.EE.5 Understand solving an equation or inequality as a process of answering a
question: which values from a specified set, if any, make the equation or 41, 78 18, 20
inequality true? Use substitution to determine whether a given number in a
specified set makes an equation or inequality true.
6.EE.6 Use variables to represent numbers and write expressions when solving a real-
world or mathematical problem; understand that a variable can represent an 12, 46 19
unknown number, or, depending on the purpose at hand, any number in a
specified set.
6.EE.7 Solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations
of the form x 1 p 5 q and px 5 q for cases in which p, q and x are all 9, 33, 77 19
nonnegative rational numbers.
6.EE.8 Write an inequality of the form x . c or x , c to represent a constraint
or condition in a real-world or mathematical problem. Recognize that 18, 35, 50, 69 20
inequalities of the form x . c or x , c have infinitely many solutions;
represent solutions of such inequalities on number line diagrams.
6.EE.9 Use variables to represent two quantities in a real-world problem that
change in relationship to one another; write an equation to express one
quantity, thought of as the dependent variable, in terms of the other quantity,
thought of as the independent variable. Analyze the relationship between 26, 68, 74 21
the dependent and independent variables using graphs and tables, and relate
these to the equation. For example, in a problem involving motion at constant
speed, list and graph ordered pairs of distances and times, and write the equation
d 5 65t to represent the relationship between distance and time.

Item Numbers Lesson(s)
Geometry
5.G.1 Use a pair of perpendicular number lines, called axes, to define a coordinate
system, with the intersection of the lines (the origin) arranged to coincide
with the 0 on each line and a given point in the plane located by using an
ordered pair of numbers, called its coordinates. Understand that the first
number indicates how far to travel from the origin in the direction of one 31 31
axis, and the second number indicates how far to travel in the direction
of the second axis, with the convention that the names of the two axes
and the coordinates correspond (e.g., x-axis and x-coordinate, y-axis and
y-coordinate).
5.G.2 Represent real world and mathematical problems by graphing points in the
first quadrant of the coordinate plane, and interpret coordinate values of 53 32
points in the context of the situation.
6.G.1 Find the area of right triangles, other triangles, special quadrilaterals, and
polygons by composing into rectangles or decomposing into triangles and 15, 45, 72 22
other shapes; apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and
mathematical problems.
6.G.2 Find the volume of a right rectangular prism with fractional edge lengths by
packing it with unit cubes of the appropriate unit fraction edge lengths, and
show that the volume is the same as would be found by multiplying the edge 5, 37, 40 25
lengths of the prism. Apply the formulas V 5 lwh and V 5 bh to find volumes
of right rectangular prisms with fractional edge lengths in the context of
solving real-world and mathematical problems.
6.G.3 Draw polygons in the coordinate plane given coordinates for the vertices;
use coordinates to find the length of a side joining points with the same first 11, 43, 70 23
coordinate or the same second coordinate. Apply these techniques in the
context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.
6.G.4 Represent three-dimensional figures using nets made up of rectangles and
triangles, and use the nets to find the surface area of these figures. Apply 10, 52 24
these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical
problems.
Statistics and Probability
6.SP.1 Recognize a statistical question as one that anticipates variability in the data
related to the question and accounts for it in the answers. For example,
“How old am I?” is not a statistical question, but “How old are the students in 26
my school?” is a statistical question because one anticipates variability in
students’ ages.
6.SP.2 Understand that a set of data collected to answer a statistical question has a 27
distribution which can be described by its center, spread, and overall shape.
6.SP.3 Recognize that a measure of center for a numerical data set summarizes all of
its values with a single number, while a measure of variation describes how 27
its values vary with a single number.
6.SP.4 Display numerical data in plots on a number line, including dot plots,
28
histograms, and box plots.
6.SP.5 Summarize numerical data sets in relation to their context, such as by: Tested in Grade 7 29
6.SP.5.a Reporting the number of observations. 29
6.SP.5.b Describing the nature of the attribute under investigation, 29
including how it was measured and its units of measurement.
6.SP.5.c Giving quantitative measures of center (median and/or mean) and
variability (interquartile range and/or mean absolute deviation), as
well as describing any overall pattern and any striking deviations 29
from the overall pattern with reference to the context in which
the data were gathered.
6.SP.5.d Relating the choice of measures of center and variability to the
shape of the data distribution and the context in which the data 29
were gathered.
