These units were written to build upon concepts from prior units, so later units contain tasks that depend upon the concepts addressed in earlier units.
All units will include the Mathematical Practices and indicate skills to maintain.
*Revised standards indicated in bold red font.

NOTE: Mathematical standards are interwoven and should be addressed throughout the year in as many different units and tasks as possible in order to stress the natural connections that exist among mathematical topics.

Grades 6-8 Key:

NS = The Number System
RP = Ratios and Proportional Relationships
EE = Expressions and Equations
G = Geometry
SP = Statistics and Probability
