Math
Dividing with Fractions
MA.5.FR.1.1: Given a mathematical or real-world problem, represent the division of two whole numbers as a fraction.
MA.5.FR.2.4: Extend previous understanding of division to explore the division of a unit fraction by a whole number and a whole number by a unit fraction.
MA.5.AR.1.3 Solve real-world problems involving division of a unit fraction by a whole number and a whole number by a unit fraction.
Science
Matter
SC.5.P8.1: Compare and contrast the basic properties of solids, liquids, and gasses, such as mass, volume, color, texture, and temperature.
SC.5.P.8.2: Investigate and identify materials that will dissolve in water and those that will not and identify the conditions that will speed up or slow down the dissolving process.
SC.5.P.8.3: Demonstrate and explain that mixtures of solids can be separated based on observable properties of their parts such as particle size, shape, color, and magnetic attraction.
** Not a state tested standard**SC.5.P.8.4: Explore the scientific theory of atoms by recognizing that all matter is composed of parts that are too small to be seen without magnification.
SC.5.P.9.1: investigate and describe that many physical and chemical changes are affected by temperature.
