Standard 6.0 Knowledge of Number Relationships and Computation/Arithmetic
Students will describe, represent, or apply numbers or their relationships or will estimate or compute using mental strategies, paper/pencil or technology.
Topic
A. Knowledge of Number and Place Value
Indicator
- 1. Apply knowledge of whole numbers and place value
Objectives
- Read, write, and represent whole numbers using symbols, words, and models
Assessment limit: Use whole numbers (0 - 10,000)
- Express whole numbers using expanded form
Assessment limit: Use whole numbers (0 - 10,000)
- Identify the place value of a digit in a whole number
Assessment limit: Use whole numbers (0 - 9,999)
- Compare, order, and describe whole numbers with or without using relational symbols (<, >, =)
Assessment limit: Use no more than four whole numbers (0 - 10,000)
Indicator
- 2. Apply knowledge of fractions
Objectives
- Read, write, and represent fractions as parts of a single region using symbols, words, and models
Assessment limit: Use fractions with denominators of 2, 3, or 4
- Read, write, and represent fractions as parts of a set using symbols, words, and models
Assessment limit: Use fractions with denominators of 2, 3, or 4, and use sets of 2, 3, 4 items, respectively
Indicator
- 3. Apply knowledge of money
Objectives
- Represent money amounts in different ways
Assessment limit: Use money amounts ($0 - $100)
- Determine the value of a given set of mixed currency
Assessment limit: Use coins and bills ($0 - $100)
- Compare the value of two sets of mixed currency
Topic
B. Number Theory
Indicator
- 1. Apply number relationships to:
Objective
- Identify and describe whole numbers as even or odd
Assessment limit: Use whole numbers (0 – 100)
Topic
C. Number Computation
Indicator
- 1. Analyze number relations and compute
Objectives
- Add numbers using a variety of strategies
Assessment limit: Use no more than 3 addends, with no more than 3 digits in each addend and whole numbers (0 – 1000)
- Subtract numbers using a variety of strategies
Assessment limit: Use no more than 3 digits in the minuend or subtrahend and whole numbers (0 – 999)
- Solve addition and subtraction word problems
- Add and subtract money amounts
- Identify and apply the concept of inverse operations to addition and subtraction
- Represent multiplication and division basic facts using number sentences, pictures, and drawings
Assessment limit: Use basic facts of no more than 9 x 9 = 81
- Identify and use properties of multiplication
Assessment limit: Use the properties of commutative, identity, or zero and whole numbers (0 – 20)
- Multiply a one-digit factor by a two-digit factor using models, pictures, and drawings
- Divide a two-digit dividend by a one-digit divisor using models, pictures, and drawings
- Identify and apply the concept of inverse operations to multiplication and division
- Write a word problem based on multiplication or division number sentences
Indicator
- 2. Estimation
Objective
- Determine the reasonableness of sums and differences
Note: Highlighted assessment limits will be tested in the no calculator section of MSA. In the assessment limit, (0-10) or (-10 to 10) means all numbers in the problem or the answer will fall within the range of 0 to 10 (including endpoints) or -10 to 10 (including endpoints), respectively. All content standards are tested in MSA but not all objectives. Objectives that have an assessment limit are tested on MSA. Objectives without an assessment limit are not tested on MSA.
