Objective 3:
The student will demonstrate an understanding of
geometry and spatial reasoning.
The student is expected to:
• identify critical attributes, including parallel,
perpendicular and congruent parts of shapes
and solids.
• use critical attributes to define geometric
shapes or solids.
• sketch the results of translations, rotations, and
reflections.
• locate and name points on a coordinate grid
using ordered pairs of whole numbers.
Objective 3 Example

Which statement about this figure is true?
a.
b.
c.
d.
The figure is a cone.
The figure has 4 faces.
The figure has 2 rectangular faces.
The figure has no vertices.
Objective 4:
The student will demonstrate an
understanding of the concepts and uses of
measurement.
The student is expected to:
• describe numerical relationships between units.
of measure within the same measurement
system, such as an inch is 1/12 of a foot.
• measure volume using cubic units.
• measure to solve problems involving length,
weight, capacity, time temperature, and area.
Objective 4 Example
Mike wants to watch a movie on
television. The movie starts at 8:00
p.m. and is 135 minutes long. What
time will the movie end?
a. 9:35 p.m.
b. 10:00 p.m.
c. 10:15 p.m.
d. 10:35 p.m.
Objective 5:
The student will demonstrate an
understanding of probability and statistics.
The student is expected to:
• use fractions to describe the results of an
experiment.
• use tables of related number pairs to make line
graphs.
• graph a given set of data using an appropriate
graphical representation, such as a picture or
line.
• describe characteristics of data presented in
tables and graphs.
Objective 5 Example
Valerie has 5 pens, 4 markers, and 3 pencils
in her backpack. If Valerie reaches into her
backpack and pulls out something to write
with without looking, what is the probability
that it will be a pencil?
a. 3/4
b. 5/12
c. 1/3
d. 1/4
**Note: Students should be able to recognize a
fraction in simplified form.
Objective 6:
The student will demonstrate an understanding of the
mathematical processes and tools used in problem
solving.
The student is expected to:
• identify math in everyday situations.
• relate informal language to mathematical language and
symbols.
• make generalizations from patterns or sets of examples
and nonexamples.
• select or develop an appropriate problem solving
strategy, including drawing a table, picture, working
backwards, guessing and checking.
• use the problem-solving model to make a plan, carry out
the plan, and then evaluate the solution.
Objective 6 Example
A theater has 12 rows with 15 seats in each
row. If 108 seats are occupied, which of the
following shows a way to find the number of
empty seats in the theater?
