Exhibit 3: Mathematics Curriculum Covered by the End of Grade 8

Domain	Topic	Skills
Number	Whole numbers	Understanding place value, factorization, the four arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division), computation, estimation, and approximation
	Fractions and decimals	Using common fractions, including equivalent fractions, ordering fractions and decimals (e.g., by place value), and converting between decimals and common fractions Representing decimals and fractions using words, numbers, or models (including number lines) Performing the four arithmetic operations with fractions, decimals, and percentages
	Integers	Representing, comparing, ordering, and calculating with integers
	Ratio, proportion, and percent	Understanding equivalence, dividing quantities by a given ratio, and converting between percentages and fractions or decimals
Algebra	Patterns	Extending numeric, algebraic, or geometric patterns or sequences using words, symbols, or diagrams Finding missing terms and generalizing pattern relationships in a sequence, between adjacent terms in a sequence, or between the number of the term in a sequence and the term itself using words or symbols
	Algebraic expressions	Finding sums, products, and powers of expressions containing variables
	Equations and formulas	Solving problems using equations or formulas
Geometry	Lines and angles	Identifying angles (e.g., acute, right, straight, obtuse, and reflex); knowing and using the properties of angle bisectors and perpendicular bisectors of lines
	Two- and three-dimensional shapes	Identifying properties of geometric shapes (e.g., triangles, quadrilaterals, and other common polygons), applying geometric properties to solving problems, and calculating the length of lines, or the surface area or volume of shapes and solids (e.g., squares and cubes)
	Congruence and similarity	Identifying congruent and similar features of shapes
	Symmetry and transformations	Identifying geometric transformations (i.e., the results of performing translations, rotations, and reflections)
Data Management	Data collection and organization	Calculating and displaying the mean, median, range, and shape of distributions (in general terms), and determining sample sizes for random experiments
