8.1 Number Operations and Concepts

8.2 Geometry

8.2.1 Students classify and describe one-, two-, and three-dimensional geometric objects, including:
8.2.1.a lines, rays, segments, and angles;
- Geometry: Identify complementary, supplementary, vertical, adjacent, and congruent angles (Eighth grade - Q.1)
8.2.1.b parallel and perpendicular relationships;
- Geometry: Transversal of parallel lines (Eighth grade - Q.3)
8.2.1.c circles and spheres;
- Geometry: Parts of a circle (Eighth grade - Q.17)
8.2.1.d regular polygon types;
8.2.1.e right prisms, cylinders, cones, and pyramids.
- Geometry: Names and parts of 3-dimensional figures (Eighth grade - Q.23)
- Geometry: Nets of 3-dimensional figures (Eighth grade - Q.24)
8.2.2 Students make conjectures about geometric objects based on knowledge of geometric transformations, congruence, and similarity.
8.2.3 Students use geometric formulas including the Pythagorean Theorem.
8.2.4 Students communicate the reasoning used in identifying geometric relationships in problem-solving situations appropriate to grade level.
8.2.5 Students represent geometric figures using a rectangular coordinate plane.

8.3 Measurement

8.3.1 Students apply estimation and measurement of weight/mass to content problems and convert within U.S. customary and within metric units (mg, g, kg).
8.3.2 Students apply estimation and measurement of capacity/volume to content problems and convert within metric units (ml, l).
8.3.3 Students select and use the appropriate methods, tools, and units to solve problems involving angle measure, perimeter, circumference, area (including circles), and volume of rectangular solids.

8.4 Algebra

8.4.1 Students translate word phrases, which involve the four basic operations to mathematical expressions.
8.4.2 Students solve one- and two- step linear equations each with an integer coefficient and integer solutions.
8.4.3 Students evaluate algebraic expressions and formulas given integer values for variables.
8.4.4 Using simple linear equations, students create a table, and graph the solutions on the coordinate system.

8.5 Data Analysis and Probability

8.5.1 Students systematically collect, organize, describe, analyze, and represent data using tables, charts, diagrams, and graphs.
8.5.2 Students calculate mean, median, mode, and range for data sets and use in a real-world setting appropriate to grade level.
8.5.3 Students predict, compare, and calculate probable outcomes of experiments or simulations.
8.5.4 Students communicate about the likelihood of events using concepts from probability such as impossible, equally likely and certain appropriate to grade level.
