Number Sense 1.0 Students compute with very large and very small numbers, positive integers, decimals, and fractions and understand the relationship between decimals, fractions, and percents. They understand the relative magnitudes of numbers:	http://www.stfx.ca/special/mathproblems/grade5.html Word problems with hints and solutions
2.0 Students perform calculations and solve problems involving addition, subtraction, and simple multiplication and division of fractions and decimals	http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/conversions/index.html Fraction Converter
Algebra and Functions 1.0 Students use variables in simple expressions, compute the value of the expression for specific values of the variable, and plot and interpret the results:	http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/sequencer/index.html Students learn about number patterns in sequences and recursions by specifying a starting number, multiplier and add-on
Measurement and Geometry 1.0 Students understand and compute the volumes and areas of simple objects:	http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/perm/index.html students can manipulate the perimeter and see the corresponding area of a shape, or vise versa. http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/perimeter/index.html Students are shown shapes on a grid and asked to calculate areas and perimeters of the shapes
2.0 Students identify, describe, and classify the properties of, and the relationships between, plane and solid geometric figures:	http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/tessellate/index.html Students create a tessellation, print it out and then create a similar tessellation using colored construction paper.
Statistics, Data Analysis, and Probability 1.0 Students display, analyze, compare, and interpret different data sets, including data sets of different sizes:	http://www.venndiagram.com/venn01.html student use this tool to create venn diagrams. http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/simpleplot/index.html Students can plot ordered pairs of numbers, either as a scatter plot or with the dots connected.
Mathematical Reasoning 1.0 Students make decisions about how to approach problems:	http://www.cut-the-knot.com/SimpleGames/SoupFish.shtml The game logic game Fish Soup has students try to select three words that share a common letter. http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/estim/index.html This game has student estimate to find answers. decisions about approximations a critical concept.
2.0 Students use strategies, skills, and concepts in finding solutions	http://www.cut-the-knot.com/game_st.shtml The magic Squares game tests student's ability to reason and develop a strategy.
3.0 Students move beyond a particular problems by generalizing to other situations:
