This is the second course in a two-part series designed for K-8 pre-service teachers to address the conceptual framework for mathematics taught in elementary school. The focus of part two will be on measurement, geometry, probability and data analysis.
Identify the relevant attributes of objects when solving problems.
Apply appropriate techniques, tools, and formulas to determine measurements.
Mathematical Connections
Synthesize the mathematics concepts addressed in this course.
Applications of Geometry
Use symmetry to analyze mathematical situations.
Describe spatial relationships using coordinate geometry.
Specify locations using coordinate geometry.
Introduction to Geometry
Use visualization, spatial reasoning, and geometric modeling to solve problems.
Identify geometric figures and shapes based on mathematical arguments.
Apply characteristics and properties of two- and three-dimensional geometric shapes in problem solving.
Data Analysis and Probability
Develop inferences and predictions based on data.
Apply basic concepts of probability.
Use appropriate statistical methods to analyze data.
