Duration: One year

Prerequisite: 4th grade

Elective or Required: Required

Mathematics Mission Statement

Since Mathematical and Computational thinking are an integral part of our lives and 21st Century learning, students must be actively involved in their mathematics education with problem solving being an essential part of the curriculum.  The mathematics and computer science curricula will emphasize thinking skills through a balance of computation, intuition, common sense, logic, analysis and technology. 

 

Students will be engaged and challenged in a developmentally appropriate, student-centered learning environment. Students will communicate mathematical ideas effectively and apply those ideas by using manipulatives, computational skills, mathematical models and technology in order to solve practical problems. 

 

To achieve these goals, students will be taught a standards-based curriculum that is aligned with the National Common Core Standards in Mathematics and the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards in Technology and 21st Century Life and Careers.

Course Description:

In fifth grade math, students will be working to improve and solidify their knowledge in three critical areas: fractions, volume, and division operations. In doing so, students will be exposed to units focusing on algebraic thinking, whole number sense, fraction number sense, measurement, data, and geometry. Students will be practicing the following skills throughout their year: problem solving, reasoning, modeling, using appropriate tools, using structure, recognizing patterns, and checking for precision. In addition, students will use various forms of technology to assist in their mathematical problem solving.
