Lesson 1.12           Unit 1 Review and Assessment

 

Lessons cover the following 6th grade GLE’s:

M(DSP)-6-1 Interprets a given representation (circle graphs, line graphs, or stem-and-leaf plots) to answer questions related to the data, to analyze the data to formulate or justify conclusions, to make predictions, or to solve problems.

(IMPORTANT: Analyzes data consistent with concepts and skills in M(DSP)-6-2.)

M(DSP)-6-2 Analyzes patterns, trends or distributions in data in a variety of contexts by determining or using measures of central tendency (mean, median, or mode) or dispersion (range) to analyze situations, or to solve problems.

M(G&M)-6-6 Demonstrates conceptual understanding of perimeter of polygons, the area of quadrilaterals or triangles, and the volume of rectangular prisms by using models, formulas, or by solving problems; and demonstrates understanding of the relationships of circle measures (radius to diameter and diameter to circumference) by solving related problems. Expresses all measures using appropriate units.

M(G&M)-6-7 Measures and uses units of measures appropriately and consistently, and makes conversions within systems when solving problems across the content strands.
