Upon completion of Unit 7:
- 6.EE.A.2. Write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers.
- 6.EE.A.2a. Write expressions that record operations with numbers and with letters standing for numbers.
- 6.EE.A.2b. 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.
- 6.EE.A.2c. 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 parentheses to specify a particular order (Order of Operations).
- 6.EE.A.3. Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions.
- 6.EE.A.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).
- 6.EE.B.6. Use variables to represent numbers and write expressions when solving a real-world or mathematical problem; understand that a variable can represent an unknown number, or, depending on the purpose at hand, any number in a specified set.
