Unit 4: Applying Data Analysis and Perimeter to Finalize Fluency with Addition and Subtraction of Decimals
Essential Questions
What can we learn about numbers by comparing them?
How do I decide which operation or operations are needed to solve problems?
How do I decide which strategy to use when making calculations?
How can I verify that an answer is reasonable?
How can I use numbers and symbols to represent real-life situations?
How can I use number sentences to solve problems?
What kinds of questions can we answer by analyzing data?
How can we share data with others in meaningful ways?
Students will be able to…
Read and interpret data from frequency tables, bar graphs, dot plots, and/or stem-and-leaf plots using whole numbers and decimals.
Solve one- and two-step problems using data from a frequency table, bar graph, dot plot, and/or stem-and-leaf plot using whole numbers and decimals.
Represent perimeter problems with pictures pictures, diagrams, expressions and equations.
Solve perimeter problems by simplifying expressions related to the perimeter formula including expressions with decimals and whole numbers.
Round decimals to the tenths or hundredths.

- 5.4H represent and solve problems related to area and related to volume.
- 5.4G use concrete objects and pictorial models to develop the formulas for the volume of a rectangular prism, including the special form for a cube (V = l x w x h, V = s x s x s, and V = Bh);
- 5.6A recognize a cube with side length of one unit as a unit cube having one cubic unit of volume and the volume of a three-dimensional figure as the number of unit cubes (n cubic units) needed to fill it with no gaps or overlaps if possible;
- 5.6B determine the volume of a rectangular prism with whole number side lengths in problems related to the number of layers times the number of unit cubes in the area of the base.
