Project M3: Level 5-6: Designer Boxes: Exploring Volume and Surface Area Teacher Text + 3 Year Online License
In this unit on geometric measurement, students build on the work they have done with area and perimeter and extend it to three-dimensional solids. They will improve their abilities to reason spatially as they learn about the relationships among faces, vertices, and edges of rectangular prisms and how to make and label drawings of boxes. Students also learn to make sense of and use formula.

Project M3: Level 5-6: Our Environment Matters: Making Sense of Percents Teacher Text + 3 Year Online License
In this unit, students explore percents in depth and see how it is linked to the study of proportionality. They will make connections to number concepts and algebra as they develop their understanding of percents, connect percents to different representations of the same number using fractions and decimals, and use a variety of models including double number lines, bar models (tape diagrams), and equations to make sense of situations that involve percents.

Project M3: Level 5-6: Record Makers and Breakers: Analyzing Graphs, Tables and Equations Teacher Text + 3 Year Online License
In this unit, students learn about algebra as a set of concepts tied to the representation of relationships either by words, tables or graphics. They extend their notion of variable from a letter in an equation that represents a number to a more broad definition, that of a quantity that varies or changes. Students also study constant and varying rates of change as an intuitive introduction to slope.
