Enduring Understanding: Musicians connect their personal interests, experiences, ideas, and knowledge to creating, performing, and responding.
Essential Question(s): How do musicians make meaningful connections to creating, performing, and responding?
Process Component(s): Synthesize

Performance Standard(s):
Explain and demonstrate how personal interests, knowledge and ideas relate to choices and intent when creating, performing, and responding to music.

Enduring Understanding: Musicians connect societal, cultural, and historical contexts when creating, performing, and responding.
Essential Question(s): How do musicians make meaningful connections to societal, cultural, and historical contexts when creating, performing, and responding?
Process Component(s): Relate

Performance Standard(s):
Explain and demonstrate connections between music and societal, cultural and historical contexts when creating, performing, and responding.

Enduring Understanding: 7.2 Response to music is informed by analyzing context (social, cultural, and historical) and how creators and performers manipulate the elements of music.
Essential Question(s): How do individuals choose music to experience?
Process Component(s): Analyze

Performance Standard(s):
a. Describe how the elements of music and expressive qualities relate to the structure of the pieces. b. Identify the context of music from a variety of genres, cultures, and historical periods.

Cluster:
Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division to divide fractions by fractions.

Standard:
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?

Cluster:
Apply and extend previous understandings of numbers to the system of rational numbers.

Standard:
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 with negative number coordinates. 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.

Cluster:
Apply and extend previous understandings of numbers to the system of rational numbers.

Standard:
Understand ordering and absolute value of rational numbers. 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.

Cluster:
Understand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems.

Standard:
Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities. For example, “The ratio of wings to beaks in the bird house at the zoo was 2:1, because for every 2 wings there was 1 beak.” “For every vote candidate A received, candidate C received nearly three votes.”

Cluster:
Understand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems.

Standard:
Understand the concept of a unit rate a/b associated with a ratio a:b with b ≠ 0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship. For example, “This recipe has a ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar, so there is 3/4 cup of flour for each cup of sugar.” “We paid $75 for 15 hamburgers, which is a rate of $5 per hamburger.”

Footnote:
Expectations for unit rates in this grade are limited to non-complex fractions.

Cluster:
Understand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems.

Standard:
Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations. Make tables of equivalent ratios relating quantities with whole number measurements, find missing values in the tables, and plot the pairs of values on the coordinate plane. Use tables to compare ratios.

Cluster:
Develop understanding of statistical variability.

Standard:
Recognize a statistical question as one that anticipates variability in the data related to the question and accounts for it in the answers. For example, “How old am I?” is not a statistical question, but “How old are the students in my school?” is a statistical question because one anticipates variability in students’ ages.
