Common Core Math - HS Number and Quantity
Lesson Plan
Use units to solve problems
Goals / Objectives
Use units to understand a problem before attempting to solve it, identifying what quantities are given and what quantity must be found
Perform dimensional analysis (unit analysis) to guide multi-step problem solving, ensuring that units combine correctly to produce the desired result
Choose and interpret units consistently in formulas, explaining what each unit represents and why the formula's units are consistent
Choose and interpret the scale and origin in graphs and data displays to accurately represent quantitative relationships
Use unit conversion as a problem-solving strategy, chaining conversion factors to transform between different unit systems
