This unit builds understanding of form and perspective while strengthening communication and creative expression.

DATA HANDLING

Students will collect, organize, and display data using charts, tables, bar graphs, and line graphs. They will pose questions, interpret data, and compare different types of graphs. Students will understand mode, range, and how scale affects data display. They will explore probability through real-life experiments, predict outcomes, and describe chances using simple numerical notation. By analyzing patterns and results, students will build skills in data handling and probability.

NUMBER & NUMBER SENSE

Students will deepen their understanding of the base 10 system and explore place value in large numbers. They will read, write, compare, and order numbers up to a million and with decimals. Students will round numbers, recognize patterns in even, odd, prime, and composite numbers, and work with factors and multiples.
