Fifth Grade Math Curriculum
These are the curriculum objectives that will be tested on the Math EOG.
- Math Goal 1 - Number Sense
- The learners will develop number sense using 0.001-999,999 in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
- Math Goal 2 - Measurement
- The learners will convert in metric and standard units, measure angles and determine elapsed time.
- Math Goal 3 - Geometry
- The learners will identify, describe, analyze, compare, and classify triangles and quadrilaterals by properties including sides,
angles and diagonals.
- Math Goal 4 - Data Analysis and Probability
- The learners will collect, organize, analyze, and display data using various representations, including stem-and-leaf plots.
Analyze data using measures of center (mode, median) and variability (minimum and maximum values, unusual data points, and range).
- Math Goal 5 - Algebra
- The learners will model, write and evaluate whole number equations and equations involving addition/subtraction of decimals and
fractions.
- Math Goal 6 - Problem Solving
- The learners will Develop fluency in solving single and multi-step problems that arise in mathematics and in other contexts,
building mathematical knowledge through problem solving.
Math Calendars
Math Matrix
Every morning we do a morning drill called the matrix. The students work to improve their scores on their basic
multiplication facts. Top 10 Matrix Scores are given biweekly to encourage growth. Here are the current Top 10 times:

Stellated Icosahedron
| Objective 2.03 - Use of concrete and pictorial representations and appropriate
vocabulary to compare and classify polygons and polyhedra. These are advanced stellated icosahedron that
the class created using polyhedra patterns. This would be considered a level 4 activity. |

Friday Math Tests
I give a cumulative review math test every Friday. This helps to review the skills that we have been learning
throughout the year. It also helps parents recognize areas of weaknesses with their children so they can spend extra
time helping them review in these areas. These tests get longer as the year progress and helps students prepare for
the EOG.
Pretesting
I give pretests for each unit as well as a pretest at the beginning of each quarter. Any child making a 4 on the
pretest will be placed in a more challenging unit. Either 6th grade work or Eclipse materials for
enrichment.
Homework
There is math homework Monday through Thursday every week.
