In an effort to empower teachers and assist with the transition from Indiana Academic Standards (IAS) to Indianas Common Core Standards (INCC), staff members in the Offices of College and Career Readiness and Student Assessment at the Indiana Department of Education have created INCC/IAS Instructional and Assessment Guidance documents for use during the 2013-14 school year in grades 3-8. These Guidance documents serve to inform curricular and instructional priorities and provide transparency with regard to assessment. The Guidance documents focus on critical INCC and IAS content from a preparedness perspective, emphasizing connections between INCC and IAS indicators. Content presented in the Guidance documents has been aligned with assessment, ensuring the opportunity to learn that is needed for student success on ISTEP+. In short, these Guidance documents describe what teachers should be teaching in 2013-14. The how, including designing effective lessons and implementing instructional strategies that meet the learning needs of students, represents the art and science of teaching. It is important to note that the 2013-14 Guidance documents are designed to facilitate significant shifts in terms of curriculum and instruction, while incorporating areas of emphasis for assessment. The unique combination of INCC and IAS within these Guidance documents necessitated a new format for 2013-14, and the information is presented in such a way as to clearly communicate instructional priorities and assist teachers in their efforts to improve student learning and prepare students to be college and career ready. Educators are encouraged to carefully review the Guidance documents for each content area and grade level, as applicable, to ensure a thorough understanding of the instructional and assessment priorities for 2013-14.

denominator to add two fractions or to find the reduced form for a fraction).
*IAS 6.2.7 Understand proportions and use them to solve problems. *IAS 6.2.8 Calculate given percentages of quantities and solve problems involving discounts at sales, interest earned, and tips. *IAS 6.5.2 Understand and use larger units for measuring length by comparing miles to yards and kilometers to meters.
Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division to divide fractions by fractions.
The Number System 6.NS.1 Interpret and compute quotients of fractions, and solve word problems involving division of fractions by fractions, e.g., by using visual fraction models and equations to represent the problem. For example, create a story context for (2/3) (3/4) and use a visual fraction model to show the quotient; use the relationship between multiplication and division to explain that (2/3) (3/4) = 8/9 because 3/4 of 8/9 is 2/3. (In general, (a/b) (c/d) = ad/bc.) How much chocolate will each person get if 3 people share 1/2 lb of chocolate equally? How many 3/4-cup servings are in 2/3 of a cup of yogurt? How wide is a rectangular strip of land with length 3/4 mi and area 1/2 square mi?

Compute fluently with multi-digit numbers and find common factors and multiples.
Fluently divide multi-digit numbers using the standard algorithm. Fluently add, subtract, multiply, and divide multi-digit decimals using the standard algorithm for each operation. (*IAS 6.2.3) Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers less than or equal to 100 and the least common multiple of two whole numbers less than or equal to 12. Use the distributive property to express a sum of two whole numbers 1100 with a common factor as a multiple of a sum of two whole numbers with no common factor. For example, express 36 + 8 as 4 (9 + 2) .
*IAS 6.5.10 Add, subtract, multiply, and divide with money in decimal notation.
Apply and extend previous understandings of numbers to the system of rational numbers.
6.NS.5 Understand that positive and negative numbers are used together to describe quantities having opposite directions or values (e.g., temperature above/below zero, elevation above/below sea level, debits/credits, positive/negative electric charge); use positive and negative numbers to represent quantities in real-world contexts, explaining the meaning of 0 in each situation. (*IAS 6.1.1) 6.NS.6 The Number System Understand a rational number as a point on the number line. Extend number line diagrams and coordinate axes familiar from previous grades to represent points on the line and in the plane of negative number coordinates. (*IAS 6.3.7, *6.1.3) a. Recognize opposite signs of numbers as indicating locations on opposite sides of 0 on the number line; recognize that the opposite of the opposite of a number is the number itself, e.g., (3) = 3, and that 0 is its own opposite. b. Understand signs of numbers in ordered pairs as indicating locations in quadrants of the coordinate plane; recognize that when two ordered pairs differ only by signs, the locations of the points are related by reflections across one or both axes. c. Find and position integers and other rational numbers on a horizontal or vertical number line diagram; find and position pairs of integers and other 6.NS.7 rational numbers on a coordinate plane. Understand ordering and absolute value of rational numbers. (*IAS 6.1.2) a. Interpret statements of inequality as statements about the relative position of two numbers on a number line diagram. For example, interpret 3 > 7 as a statement that 3 is located to the right of 7 on a number line oriented from left to right. b. Write, interpret, and explain statements of order for rational numbers in real-world contexts. For example, write 3C > 7C to express the fact that 3C is warmer than 7C. c. Understand the absolute value of a rational number as its distance from 0 on the number line; interpret absolute value as magnitude for a positive or negative quantity in a real-world situation. For example, for an account balance of 30 dollars, write |30| = 30 to describe the size of the debt in dollars. d. Distinguish comparisons of absolute value from statements about order. For example, recognize that an account balance less than 30 dollars represents 6.NS.8 a debt greater than 30 dollars. Solve real-world and mathematical problems by graphing points in all four quadrants of the coordinate plane. Include use of coordinates and absolute value to find distances between points with the same first coordinate or the same second coordinate. *IAS 6.2.1 Add and subtract positive and negative integers. *IAS 6.2.2 Multiply and divide positive and negative integers.

Represent and analyze quantitative relationships between dependent and independent variables.
6.EE.9 Use variables to represent two quantities in a real-world problem that change in relationship to one another; write an equation to express one quantity, thought of as the dependent variable, in terms of the other quantity, thought of as the independent variable. Analyze the relationship between the dependent and independent variables using graphs and tables, and relate these to the equation. For example, in a problem involving motion at constant speed, list and graph ordered pairs of distances and times, and write the equation d = 65t to represent the relationship between distance and time. (*IAS 6.3.9)
*IAS 6.3.8 Solve problems involving linear functions with integer values. Write the equation and graph the resulting ordered paris of integers on a grid.

Identify and draw two-dimensional shapes that are similar. Draw the translation (slide) and reflection (flip) of shapes.
ages. Understand that a set of data collected to answer a statistical question has a distribution which can be described by its center, spread, and overall shape. Recognize that a measure of center for a numerical data set summarizes all of its values with a single number, while a measure of variation describes how its values vary with a single number. Make frequency tables for numerical data, grouping the data in different ways to investigate how different groupings describe the data. Understand and find relative and cumulative frequency for a data set. Use histograms of the data and of the relative frequency distribution, and a broken line graph for cumulative frequency, to interpret data. Compare the mean, median, and mode for a set of data and explain which measure is most appropriate in a given context.
