x n x n x no exponent laws (e.g., 60 = 1; m1 = m; n5 x
n3 = n8; y7/y3 = y4; (5n)3 = 53 x n3 = 125n3; (m/n)5 = m5/n5; and (32)4 = 38)
o limited to whole-number exponents and whole-number exponent outcomes when simplified

Represent mathematical ideas in concrete, pictorial, and symbolic forms
Connecting and reflecting Reflect on mathematical thinking Connect mathematical concepts to
each other and to other areas and personal interests
Use mathematical arguments to support personal choices
Incorporate First Peoples worldviews and perspectives to make connections to mathematical concepts

multiple strategies:o includes familiar, personal,
and from other cultures connected:
o in daily activities, local and traditional practices, the environment, popular media and news events, cross-curricular integration
o Patterns are important in Aboriginal technology, architecture, and art.
o Have students pose and solve problems or ask questions connected to place, stories, and cultural practices.
Explain and justify:o using mathematical
arguments Communicate:
o concretely, pictorially, symbolically, and by using spoken or written language to express, describe, explain, justify and apply mathematical ideas; may use technology such as screencasting apps, digital photos
Reflect:o sharing the mathematical
thinking of self and others, including evaluating strategies and solutions,
o spirit canoe journey predictions and daily checks
multi-step:o includes distribution, variables on both
sides of the equation, and collecting like terms
o includes rational coefficients, constants, and solutions
o solving and verifying 1 + 2x = 3 – 2/3(x + 6)
o solving symbolically and pictorially proportional reasoning:
o scale diagrams, similar triangles and polygons, linear unit conversions
o limited to metric unitso drawing a diagram to scale that represents
an enlargement or reduction of a given 2D shape
o solving a scale diagram problem by applying the properties of similar triangles, including measurements
o integration of scale for Aboriginal mural work, use of traditional design in current Aboriginal fashion design, use of similar triangles to create longhouses/models
statistics:o population versus sample, bias, ethics,
sampling techniques, misleading statso analyzing a given set of data (and/or its
representation) and identifying potential problems related to bias, use of language, ethics, cost, time and timing, privacy, or cultural sensitivity
o using First Peoples data on water quality, Statistics Canada data on income, health, housing, population
financial literacyo banking, simple interest, savings, planned

extending, and posing new problems and questions
other areas and personal interests:
o to develop a sense of how mathematics helps us understand ourselves and the world around us (e.g., cross-discipline, daily activities, local and traditional practices, the environment, popular media and news events, and social justice)
personal choices:o including anticipating
consequences Incorporate First Peoples:
o Invite local First Peoples Elders and knowledge keepers to share their knowledge
make connections:o Bishop’s cultural practices:
counting, measuring, locating, designing, playing, explaining(http://www.csus.edu/indiv/o/oreyd/ACP.htm_files/abishop.htm )
o First Nations Education Steering Committee (FNESC) Place-Based Themes and Topics: family and ancestry; travel and navigation; games; land, environment, and resource
