A student expectation is directly related to the knowledge and skills statement, is more specific about how students demonstrate their learning, and always begins with a verb. Student expectations are further broken down into their component parts, often referred to as “breakouts.”
Vertical alignment shows student expectations in the same subject area at different grade levels that are related to or build upon one another.
describe the properties of objects in terms of relative size (scale) and relative quantity;
describe the properties of objects in terms of relative size (scale) and relative quantity;
measure and describe the properties of objects in terms of size and quantity;
use scale, proportion, and quantity to describe, compare, or model different systems;
use scale, proportion, and quantity to describe, compare, or model different systems;
Breakouts are the component parts that make up a student expectation. A breakout shows a distinct concept a student should know or a distinct skill that a student should be able to demonstrate.
