1.2: Recognize that rectangles that have the same area can have different perimeters.
1.3: Understand that rectangles that have the same perimeter can have different areas.
• Statistics, Data Analysis, and Probability
2.1: Represent all possible outcomes for a simple probability situation in an organized way (e.g., tables, grids, tree diagrams).
2.2: Express outcomes of experimental probability situations verbally and numerically (e.g., 3 out of 4; 3⁄4).

Probability of Pintails

3rd grade
Science
• Investigation & Experimentation 5c: Use numerical data is describing and comparing objects, events, and measurements.
Math
• Statistics, Data Analysis, and Probability
1.1: Identify whether common events are certain, likely, unlikely, or improbable.
1.2: Record the possible outcomes for a simple event and systematically keep track of the outcomes when the event is repeated many times.
1.3: Summarize and display the results of probability experiments in a clear and organized way (e.g. use a bar graph or a line plot).

4th grade
Math
• Number Sense
1.1: Read and write whole numbers in the millions.
1.3: Round whole numbers through the millions to the nearest ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, or hundred thousand.

5th grade
Math
• Number Sense
1.1: Estimate, round, and manipulate very large (e.g., millions) and very small (e.g., thousandths).
1.2: Interpret percents as part of a hundred; find decimal and percent equivalents for common fractions and explain why they represent the same value; compute a given percent of a whole number.

4d: Write or draw descriptions of a sequence of steps, events, and observations.

3rd grade
Science
• Life Science 3d: Students know when environment changes, some plants and animals survive and reproduce; others die or move to new locations.
