Ms. Grace’s Lesson Elements for Week of 03/17-­21/2014 (3.10) INSTRUCTIONAL MATH 72 1. Common Core Learning Standards Addressed: CCSS.Math.Content.7.RP.A.3 Use proportional relationships to solve multistep ratio and percent problems. Examples: simple interest, tax, markups and
markdowns, gratuities and commissions, fees, percent increase and decrease, percent error.
CCSS.Math.Content.7.NS.A.2 Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division and of fractions to multiply and divide rational
numbers.
CCSS.Math.Content.6.RP.A.3c Find a percent of a quantity as a rate per 100 (e.g., 30% of a quantity means 30/100 times the quantity); solve problems
involving finding the whole, given a part and the percent.
CCSS.ELA-Literacy.SL.7.1c Pose questions that elicit elaboration and respond to others’ questions and comments with relevant observations and ideas
that bring the discussion back on topic as needed.
CCSS.ELA-Literacy.SL.7.1d Acknowledge new information expressed by others and, when warranted, modify their own views Abbreviations: IT=Interactive Textbook; TB=Textbook; BNC=Building Number Concepts; PS=Problem Solving; SM=Skills Maintenance Exercise; AS=Apply Skills Exercise; PSA=Problem
