At some point in life, you have probably assumed the role of an explorer. But you may not be realizing the full experience of exploration because you are focusing on a destination rather than a journey.
Examine a variety of ideas about explorers and exploration that may help you to think in a different way as you explore the world inside and around you. Are you ready to begin a new adventure that will help y
In this unit, students are encouraged to study patterns and determine how they change, how they can be extended or repeated and/or how they grow. They then move beyond this to organize the information systematically and analyze it to develop generalizations about the mathematical relationships in the patterns. There is a strong focus on mathematical discourse revolving around how to verbalize a generalization.

In this unit on measurement, students actively engage in the measurement process to connect their learning and new knowledge to their own personal worlds. As mathematicians, they measure objects in the classroom, at home, and even their own bodies. They make estimates, develop personal benchmarks, and focus on the accuracy and precision of measurement. They examine irregular shapes and develop strategies to find their areas and perimeters, as well as explore liquid volume and capacity.
