Standard:
Conduct short research projects to answer a question (including a self-generated question), drawing on several sources and generating additional related, focused questions that allow for multiple avenues of exploration.

Enduring Understanding: Dance literacy includes deep knowledge and perspectives about societal, cultural, historical, and community contexts.
Essential Question(s): How does knowing about societal, cultural, historical and community experiences expand dance literacy?
Process Component(s): Relate

Performance Standard(s):
Compare, contrast, and discuss dances performed by people in various localities or communities. Formulate possible reasons why similarities and differences developed in relation to the ideas and perspectives important to each.

Enduring Understanding: Dance is perceived and analyzed to comprehend its meaning.
Essential Question(s): How is a dance understood?
Process Component(s): Analyze

Performance Standard(s):
a. Compare, contrast, and discuss patterns of movement and their relationships in a dance. b. Compare and contrast how the elements of dance are used in a variety of genres, styles, or cultural movement practices. Use genre-specific dance terminology.

Cluster:
Use properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions.

Standard:
Understand that rewriting an expression in different forms in a problem context can shed light on the problem and how the quantities in it are related. For example, a + 0.05a = 1.05a means that “increase by 5%” is the same as “multiply by 1.05.”

Cluster:
Draw, construct, and describe geometrical figures and describe the relationships between them.

Standard:
Solve problems involving scale drawings of geometric figures, including computing actual lengths and areas from a scale drawing and reproducing a scale drawing at a different scale.

Cluster:
Draw, construct, and describe geometrical figures and describe the relationships between them.

Standard:
Draw (freehand, with ruler and protractor, and with technology) geometric shapes with given conditions. Focus on constructing triangles from three measures of angles or sides, noticing when the conditions determine a unique triangle, more than one triangle, or no triangle.

Cluster:
Draw, construct, and describe geometrical figures and describe the relationships between them.

Standard:
Describe the two-dimensional figures that result from slicing three-dimensional figures, as in plane sections of right rectangular prisms and right rectangular pyramids.

Cluster:
Solve real-life and mathematical problems involving angle measure, area, surface area, and volume.

Standard:
Know the formulas for the area and circumference of a circle and use them to solve problems; give an informal derivation of the relationship between the circumference and area of a circle.

Enduring Understanding: : Media artworks synthesize meaning and form cultural experience.
Essential Question(s): How do we relate knowledge and experiences to understanding and making media artworks? How do we learn about and create meaning through producing media artworks?
Process Component(s): Synthesize

Performance Standard(s):
a. Access, evaluate and use internal and external resources, such as experiences, research, and exemplary works, to inform the creation of media artworks. b. Explain and show how media artworks form new meanings and knowledge, situations, and cultural experiences, such as learning through online environments.

Enduring Understanding: Media artworks and ideas are better understood and produced by relating them to their purposes, values, and various contexts.
Essential Question(s): How does media arts relate to its various contexts, purposes, and values? How does investigating these relationships inform and deepen the media artist's understanding and work?
Process Component(s): Relate

Performance Standard(s):
a. Research and demonstrate how media artworks and ideas relate to various situations, purposes and values, such as community, vocations, and social media. b. Analyze and responsibly interact with media arts tools and environments, considering fair use and copyright, ethics, media literacy, and social media.
