5.N.10
Compare and order decimals (tenths, hundredths, thousandths) by using � equivalent decimals
5.N.11
Demonstrate an understanding of addition and subtraction of decimals (to thousandths), concretely, pictorially, and symbolically, by � using personal strategies � using the standard algorithms
5.N.11
Demonstrate an understanding of addition and subtraction of decimals (to thousandths), concretely, pictorially, and symbolically, by � using estimation � solving problems

Key ideas

  1. We write large numbers with spaces, not commas: 934 567.

  2. Front-end rounding uses the leading digits: 253 + 615 is more than 200 + 600.

  3. Partial products break both factors by place value: 36 x 42 = (30 + 6) x (40 + 2).

  4. Equivalent fractions name the same quantity, like 1/2 and 2/4.

  5. Each place moving left is ten times the one before.

Watch out for

  • Using commas instead of spaces.
  • Rounding to the wrong leading place value.
  • Missing a partial product.

Unit 2 · 3 skills

Patterns and Relations

Patterns and Equations

The official wording · 3 outcomes
5.PR.1
Determine the pattern rule to make predictions about subsequent elements.
5.PR.2
Solve problems involving single-variable (expressed as symbols or letters), one-step equations with whole-number coefficients, and whole-number solutions.
5.PR.2
Solve problems involving single-variable (expressed as symbols or letters), one-step equations with whole-number coefficients, and whole-number solutions.

Key ideas

  1. A pattern rule describes how each element relates to the one before.

  2. We can write a rule as an expression, like r + 5, to predict elements.

  3. A letter variable, like n, stands for an unknown number.

  4. A story problem can be written as a one-step equation.

  5. We find the value of the variable that makes the equation true.

Watch out for

  • Describing only two terms instead of the rule.
  • Predicting without using the rule.
  • Placing the variable in the wrong term.

Unit 3 · 10 skills

Shape and Space

Measurement

Geometry and Transformations

The official wording · 10 outcomes
5.SS.1
Design and construct different rectangles given either perimeter or area or both (whole numbers), and draw conclusions.
5.SS.2
Demonstrate an understanding of measuring length (mm) by � selecting and justifying referents for the unit mm � modelling and describing the relationship between mm and cm units, and between mm and m units
5.SS.3
Demonstrate an understanding of volume by � selecting and justifying referents for cm3 or m3 units � estimating volume by using referents for cm3 or m3
5.SS.3
Demonstrate an understanding of volume by � measuring and recording volume (cm3 or m3) � constructing rectangular prisms for a given volume
5.SS.4
Demonstrate an understanding of capacity by � describing the relationship between mL and L � selecting and justifying referents for mL or L units
5.SS.4
Demonstrate an understanding of capacity by � estimating capacity by using referents for mL or L � measuring and recording capacity (mL or L)
5.SS.5
Describe and provide examples of edges and faces of 3-D objects, and sides of 2-D shapes, that are � parallel � intersecting � perpendicular � vertical � horizontal
5.SS.6
Identify and sort quadrilaterals, including � rectangles � squares � trapezoids � parallelograms � rhombuses according to their attributes.
5.SS.7
Perform a single transformation (translation, rotation, or reflection) of a 2-D shape, and draw and describe the image.
5.SS.8
Identify a single transformation (translation, rotation, or reflection) of 2-D shapes.

Key ideas

  1. Many rectangles can share the same perimeter or the same area.

  2. Parallel lines never meet; perpendicular lines meet at a right angle.

  3. For a given perimeter, the shape closest to a square has the greatest area.

  4. Intersecting lines cross; vertical and horizontal describe direction.

  5. A millimetre is very small, about the thickness of a fingernail.

Watch out for

  • Confusing perimeter and area.
  • Confusing parallel and perpendicular.
  • Thinking one perimeter or area means one rectangle.

Unit 4 · 4 skills

Statistics and Probability

Data and Probability

The official wording · 4 outcomes
5.SP.1
Differentiate between first-hand and second-hand data.
5.SP.2
Construct and interpret double bar graphs to draw conclusions.
5.SP.3
Describe the likelihood of a single outcome occurring, using words such as � impossible � possible � certain
5.SP.4
Compare the likelihood of two possible outcomes occurring, using words such as � less likely � equally likely � more likely

Key ideas

  1. First-hand data is collected by us; second-hand data comes from another source.

  2. Some questions are best answered with first-hand data, others with second-hand.

  3. A double bar graph compares two sets of data side by side.

  4. A legend tells which bar is which group.

  5. An impossible event never happens; a certain event always happens.

Watch out for

  • Thinking all data must be collected personally.
  • Confusing first-hand and second-hand data.
  • Leaving off the legend so the bars can't be told apart.
