Solve real-world and mathematical
problems involving area, surface area, and

MCC6.G.1 Find area of right triangles, other
triangles, special quadrilaterals, and polygons
by composing into rectangles or decomposing
into triangles and other shapes; apply these
techniques in thecontext of solving real-world
and mathematical problems.
MCC6.G.2 Find thevolumeof a right
rectangular prismwith fractional edgelengths
by packing it with unit cubes of the
appropriateunit fraction edgelengths, and
show that thevolumeis thesameas would be
found by multiplying theedgelengths of the

MCC6.SP.1 Recognizea statistical question
as onethat anticipates variability in thedata

theanswers.
MCC6.SP.2 Understand that a set of data
collected to answer a statistical question has a
distribution which can bedescribed by its
center, spread, and overall shape.
MCC6.SP.3 Recognizethat a measureof
center for a numerical data set summarizes all
of its values with a singlenumber, whilea

on a number line, including dot plots,
histograms, and box plots.

MCC6.NS.5 Understand that positiveand
negativenumbers areused together to describe

(e.g., temperatureabove/below zero, elevation
above/below sea level, debits/credits,
positive/negativeelectric charge); usepositive
and negativenumbers to represent quantities
in real-world contexts, explaining themeaning
of 0 in each situation.

a point on thenumber line. Extend number

numbers as indicating locations on opposite
sides of 0 on thenumber line; recognizethat
theoppositeof theoppositeof a number is the
number itself, e.g., (3) =3, and that 0 is its
own opposite.

ordered pairs as indicating locations in
quadrants of thecoordinateplane; recognize
that when two ordered pairs differ only by
signs, thelocations of thepoints arerelated by
