Understanding the Equal Sign and Balancing Equations
Students will apply addition strategies as they complete four different station rotations to help understand that the equal sign represents a relationship where the expressions on each side of the equal sign represents the same value.
Grade 6 Math Spanish
En este curso, los estudiantes desarrollarán la comprensión de los siguientes módulos: Componer y descomponer, Relacionar cantidades, Más allá de las cantidades positivas, Determinar cantidades desconocidas y Descripción de la variabilidad de las cantidades.
Cada módulo está compuesto de temas donde se encontrarán materiales para maestros para guiar la instrucción y materiales para el uso de los estudiantes en el aula para el aprendizaje en grupo e individual.
La agencia desarrolló estos recursos de aprendizaje como una opción de contingencia para los distritos escolares durante COVID. Todos los recursos son opcionales. Antes de su publicación, los materiales pasan por una rigorosa revisión por parte de terceros. Los criterios de la revisión incluyen la alineación con TEKS, el apoyo para todos los estudiantes, el monitoreo progresivo, el apoyo en la implementación y más. Los productos también están sujetos a un grupo de educadores de Texas.
Grade 6 Math Acceleration
In this course, students will build understanding of the following modules: Composing and Decomposing, Relating Quantities, Moving Beyond Positive Quantities, Determining Unknown Quantities, Thinking Proportionally, and Describing Variability of Quantities.
Each module is broken up into topics where you will find teacher materials to guide the instruction and the student materials both used in the classroom for learning together and learning individually.
The agency developed these learning resources as a contingency option for school districts during COVID. All resources are optional. Prior to publication, materials go through a rigorous third-party review. Review criteria include TEKS alignment, support for all learners, progress monitoring, implementation supports, and more. Products also are subject to a focus group of Texas educators.
