In the second semester of this course, students will learn how to create and interpret statistical graphs, how to calculate and interpret measures of center and variation, and how sampling can influence decision-making. Students will use variables and two-dimensional plots/coordinate planes to see patterns and make predictions. Students will calculate and use rates to solve problems and see how rates affect graphs of relationships. Throughout the course, students will deepen their understanding of positive and negative numbers including decimals, and will strengthen multiplication and division of fractions, with an additional focus on increasing efficiency and fluency. Students will gain a solid foundation in the concepts of ratio and rate as an extension of their work with whole number multiplication and division, and in preparation for work with proportional relationships in Math 7. Students also make connections among area, volume, and surface area, and continue to lay the groundwork for deep algebraic understanding by interpreting and using expressions and equations.
