(Properly round to an appropriate place value if context permits; perform estimation prior to calculation; without a calculator, estimate square roots of whole numbers up to one hundred to the nearest whole number; use compatible numbers to perform mental math; use estimation to check reasonableness of an answer.)

    8.3.1  By the end of the eighth grade, students will select measurement tools and measure quantities for temperature, time, money, distance, angles, area, perimeter, volume, capacity, and weight/mass in standard and metric units at the designated level of precision.

    8.3.2  By the end of the eighth grade, students will convert units within measurement systems using standard and metric, given conversion factors. (Convert between various units of area and various units of volume [square foot to square yards and cubic decimeters to liters, etc.]; check solutions to problems using unit analysis [feet/second to miles/hour].)

    8.4.1  By the end of the eighth grade, students will identify, describe, compare, and classify two-and three- dimensional geometric figures (plane figures like polygons) and (circles and solid figures like prisms, pyramids, cones, spheres, and cylinders) and lines, line segments, rays, angles, parallel and perpendicular lines.

    8.4.2  By the end of the eighth grade, students will use geometric properties, the Pythagorean theorem, and the relationships of congruence, similarity, and symmetry.

    8.4.5  By the end of the eighth grade, students will apply transformations to two- and three- dimensional geometric figures. (Draw geometric figures using translations or slides, rotations or turns, reflections or flips, and scale.)

    8.4.6  By the end of the eighth grade, students will use geometric terms and representations to describe the physical world.

    8.5.1  By the end of the eighth grade, students will collect, construct, and interpret data displays and compute mean, median, and mode. (Select appropriate representations of data when constructing data displays [graphs, tables, or charts].)

    8.5.2  By the end of the eighth grade, students will read and interpret tables, charts, and graphs to make comparisons and predictions.

    8.5.3  By the end of the eighth grade, students will conduct experiments or simulations to demonstrate theoretical probability and relative frequency. (Compare the results of a simulation [relating frequency] to the theoretical probability [a three color spinner or a coin].)

    8.5.4  By the end of the eighth grade, students will identify statistical methods and probability for making decisions. (Identify the use of appropriate sampling techniques; identify the use of appropriate charts and graphs; identify the use of measures of central tendency [mean, median, mode] appropriately.)

    8.6.1  By the end of the eighth grade, students will demonstrate knowledge and use of the one- and two dimensional coordinate systems. (Order numbers on a number line; graph ordered pairs on a coordinate plane; generate a table of ordered pairs to graph an equation in two variables.)

    8.6.2  By the end of the eighth grade, students will apply algebraic concepts and operations to solve linear equations and word problems. (Solve multi-step equations with one variable; use order of operations to evaluate algebraic expressions for given replacement values of the variables; recognize and apply commutative, associative, distributive, inverse, and identity properties, and the properties of zero.)

    8.6.3  By the end of the eighth grade, students will describe and represent relations, using tables, graphs, and rules. (Use variables to recognize and describe patterns.)
