Ohio’s population has become increasingly reflective of the cultural diversity of the United States. English Language Arts Reading Standards – Key Ideas and Details 1.Refer to details and examples in a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text. 2.Determine a theme of a story, drama, or poem from details in the text; summarize the text. 3.Describe in depth a character, setting, or event in a story or drama, drawing on specific details in the text (e.g., a character’s thoughts, words, or actions).

Reading Standards – Informational Text 2. Determine the main idea of a text; recount the key details and explain how they support the main idea. Mathematics Measurement and data 4.MD Solve problems involving measurement and conversion of measurements from a larger unit to a smaller unit. 1. Know relative sizes of measurement units within one system of units including km, m, cm; kg, g; lb, oz.; l, ml; hr, min, sec. Within a single system of measurement, express measurements in a larger unit in terms of a smaller unit. Record measurement equivalents in a two- column table. Represent and Interpret Data 4. Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (½, ¼, 1/8). Solve problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions by using information presented in line plots. For example, from a line plot find and interpret the difference in length between the longest and shortest specimens in an insect collection. 5th Grade Social Studies: Ohio in the United States History Strand - Historical Thinking and Skills 1. Events can be arranged in order of occurrence using the conventions of B.C. and A.D. or B.C.E. and C.E. Geography Strand – Places and Regions 6.

Convert between pounds and ounces; miles and feet; yards, feet, and inches; gallons, quarts, pints, cups, and fluid ounces; hours, minutes, and seconds in solving multi-step, real-world problems. Represent and Interpret Data 2. 2 Display and interpret data in graphs (picture graphs, bar graphs, and line plotsG) to solve problems using numbers and operations for this grade, e.g., including U.S. customary units in fractions 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, or decimals. |
