Solve real-world, single-step linear equations involving positive rational numbers.
Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Use objects to solve one-step addition and subtraction equations with whole numbers.
Representation:
  • Match a representation of an equation with a variable to a real-world problem.
  • Set up an equation in which both sides are equal (adding or subtracting the same number/value from both sides of the equation).
  • Understand the following vocabulary and symbols: +, -, ×, ÷, =.
  • Understand the following concepts and vocabulary: variable, solution, equation.
General Information
Number: MAFS.6.EE.2.AP.7b
Category: Access Points
Date Adopted or Revised: 06/14
Cluster: Reason about and solve one-variable equations and inequalities. (Major Cluster)

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
