Common Core Georgia Performance Standards
What are educational standards?
Educational standards help teachers ensure their students have the skills and
knowledge they need to be successful by providing clear goals for student
learning.
Why do we need educational standards?
Common standards will help ensure that students are receiving a high quality
education consistently, from school to school and state to state.
Common standards will provide a greater opportunity to share experiences
and best practices within and across states that will improve our ability to best
serve the needs of students.

Division of Whole Numbers
In division, the number under the division
box is called the dividend . The number
outside the division box is called
the divisor . The answer in division is
called the quotient . Sometimes the
answer does not come out even ; hence,
there will be a remainder .

 Understand congruence and similarity using physical models, transparencies, or
geometry software.

Understand that a two-dimensional figure is congruent to another if the second
can be obtained from the first by a sequence of rotations, reflections, and
translations; given two congruent figures, describe a sequence that exhibits the
congruence between them.

TANGRAM ACTIVITIES
 Look at the grid of figures on the next slide. Use the
tangram pieces to form the shapes at the top:
triangle, square, rectangle, parallelogram, or trapezoid
using 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7 tangram pieces.
 As we make the shapes, draw them in the space on the
table and label the pieces used (i.e. A, B, C …)

Classroom Applications: Handouts
Use games and manipulatives to practice academic
language rather than rely on a content area text or a
dictionary alone. Games and peer interaction create a low
stress, but engaging, instructional environment.
