explain and apply the order of operations, excluding exponents.
demonstrate an understanding of the relationships within tables of values to solve problems.
represent and describe patterns and relationships, using graphs and tables.
represent generalizations arising from number relationships using equations with letter variables.
demonstrate an understanding of angles by identifying examples of angles in the environment, classifying angles according to their measure, estimating the measure of angles, determining angle measures in degrees , and drawing and labelling angles when the measure is specified .
develop and apply a formula for determining the perimeter of polygons, area of rectangles, and volume of right rectangular prisms

identify and plot points in the first quadrant of a Cartesian plane using whole number ordered pairs.
perform and describe single transformations of a 2-D shape in the first quadrant of a Cartesian plane.
create, label, and interpret line graphs to draw conclusions.
demonstrate an understanding of probability.
ABOUT MATHEMATICS
Math is about solving problems. Ever since there were humans in existence, there have been problems to solve. Whether the problems were over basic requirements like sustaining sufficient amounts of food or major accomplishments like constructing multifunctional homes, problems such as these remain with us to this day. The peculiar thing about problems is that they all have similar properties. Studying mathematics develops key skills such as critical thinking, problem solving, analytical thinking, and quantitative reasoning. It involves the ability to manipulate precise and intricate ideas, construct logical arguments and expose illogical arguments, communication, team work and independence.
