! Rationale:
Topic: Geometry
The principles and skills associated with geometry are used constantly in daily life. For example, construction, cooking, decorating, packing, and travel all include geometric calculations. Also, geometry serves as an entry point into math for students who prefer to think in terms of shapes and pictures instead of numbers. As a result, the geometry unit is critical for engaging students with math, as well as preparing them to make wise and efficient decisions in their day-to-do lives both inside and beyond the walls of the classroom.

5.G.1 Use a pair of perpendicular number lines, called axes, to dene a coordinate system, with the intersection of the lines (the origin) arranged to coincide with the 0 on each line and a given point in the plane located by using an ordered pair of numbers, called its coordinates. Understand that the rst number indicates how far to travel from the origin in the direction of one axis, and the second number indicates how far to travel in the direction of the second axis, with the convention that the names of the two axes and the coordinates correspond (e.g., x-axis and x-coordinate, y-axis and y-coordinate).! 5.G.2 Represent real world and mathematical problems by graphing points in the rst quadrant of the coordinate plane, and interpret coordinate values of points in the context of the situation.! 5.G.3 Understand that attributes belonging to a category of two-dimensional gures also belong to all subcategories of that category.! 5.G.4 Classify two-dimensional gures in a hierarchy based on properties.! 5.L.6 Acquire and use accurately grade-appropriate general academic and domain specic words and phrases!
Building towards:!
5.SL.6 Adapt speech to a variety of contexts and tasks, using formal English when appropriate to task and situation.! PE.05.SM.01 demonstrate safety, rules, procedures, and etiquette to be followed during participation in physical activities.! 5.MD.3 Recognize volume as an attribute of solid gures and understand concepts of volume measurement.! 5.MD.4 Measure volumes by counting unit cubes, using cubic cm, cubic in, cubic ft, and improvised units.! 5.MD.5 Relate volume to the operations of multiplication and addition and solve real world and mathematical problems involving volume.!

Students will need to have a basic understanding of multiplication, counting, and number sense. They must also be able to use a ruler to draw straight lines. They will need to know how to write basic sentences, follow instructions, navigate a computer, work on assignments that differ from their peers, and work in small groups. An understanding of classroom logistics in regards to homework will also be required. Finally, students will need to be able to accurately measure and record data.
