CMP3 Unit 1
August 24 – September 18 Shapes and Designs
3 Investigations: 19 Days
CURRICULUM
EXPRESSIONS AND EQUATIONS
USE PROPERTIES OF OPERATIONS TO GENERATE EQUIVALENT EXPRESSIONS.
EE.4: Use variables to represent quantities in a real-world or mathematical problem, and construct simple equations and inequalities to solve problems by reasoning
about the quantities.
GEOMETRY
DRAW, CONSTRUCT AND DESCRIBE GEOMETRICAL FIGURES AND DESCRIBE THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN THEM.
G.2: Draw (freehand, with ruler and protractor, and with technology) geometric shapes with given conditions. Focus on constructing triangles from three measures of
angles or sides, noticing when the conditions determine a unique triangle, more than one triangle, or no triangle.
SOLVE REAL-LIFE AND MATHEMATICAL PROBLEMS INVOLVING ANGLE MEASURE, AREA, SURFACE AREA, AND VOLUME.
G.5: Use facts about supplementary, complementary, vertical, and adjacent angles in a multi-step problem to write and solve simple equations for an unknown angle in a
figure.
