Unit 7: Rational Explorations: Numbers and Their Opposites Standards for Mathematical Practice Strategies for Teaching and Learning Changes to Tasks

UNIT 7 Standards for Mathematical Practice Specific Standards for Mathematical Practice Below are the relevant Standards for Mathematical Practice for the task: WHAT’S YOUR SIGN?

UNIT 7 Strategies for Teaching and Learning The Strategies for Teaching and Learning section has some very important notes regarding concepts and the intent of this unit, as the foundation for Integers is set here in sixth grade.

UNIT 7 Strategies for Teaching and Learning

Unit 7 Changes TASKS Kept the Same:  Representing Rational Numbers on the Number Line  Symbols of Inequalities and the Coordinate System  Graphing on the Coordinate Plane  Sounds of the Band Minor typo corrections to some of these, nothing significant!

Unit 7 Changes TASKS Changed and Added:  What’s Your Sign?  Note the STOP sign: Discussion of opposite numbers should occur at this time.  Absolute Value and Ordering

Unit 7 Changes TASK ADDED:  Absolute Value and Ordering  Two versions of this task Version 1: Scaffolded Version 2: Open-ended  Includes an emphasis on 6.NS.7d. Distinguish between comparisons of absolute value and statements about order  For negative numbers, as the absolute value of a number increases, the value of the number decreases! Great opportunity for mathematical discourse!

NEW FALS for 6 th Grade! Proportional Reasoning  Possibly with Unit 2 Fractions, Decimals and Percents  Assessing comparing & ordering positive rationals before introducing negatives
