Projected Math Topics for the Rest of the Year

***This is by no means a definitive list :) It is subject to change based on timing and student ability levels. But it will give you a good idea on where we are headed!

BEFORE PSSAs
Geometry (shapes, solids, perimeter, area volume, linear measurement, congruency, symmetry, flips and turns)
Fractions (equivalent fractions, reducing fractions, comparing and ordering, mixed numbers and improper fractions, adding and subtracting fractions)
Decimals (place value, omparing and ordering, rounding, adding/subtracting)
Probability (understanding and finding probabilty)

AFTER PSSAs We're bumping everything up a notch (or two, or three!)
Multi digit multiplication and division (including remainders) whole numbers, fractions and decimals
multiplying and dividing fractions (finding the GCF/LCM)
divisibility rules

IF There's time:
Geometry (lines, parts of a line, angles and planes/ parts of a circle/angles)
Ratio and proportion
