Kentucky Grade 5 Math Standards

The official Kentucky Grade 5 math standards, grouped by domain with the exact code and description for each expectation.

KY.5

  • KY.5.GGeometry
  • KY.5.G.1Use a pair of perpendicular number lines, called axes, to define a coordinate system, with the intersection of the lines (the origin) arranged to coincide with the 0 on each line and a given point in the plane located by using an ordered pair of numbers, called its coordinates. Understand that the first number indicates how far to travel from the origin in the direction of one axis and the second number indicates how far to travel in the direction of the second
  • KY.5.G.2Represent real world and mathematical problems by graphing points in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane and interpret coordinate values of points in the context of the situation
  • KY.5.G.3Understand that attributes belonging to a category of two-dimensional figures also belong to all subcategories of that category
  • KY.5.G.4Classify two-dimensional figures in a hierarchy based on properties
  • KY.5.MDMeasurement and Data
  • KY.5.MD.1Convert among different size measurement units (mass, weight, liquid volume, length, time) within one system of units (metric system, U.S. standard system and time)
  • KY.5.MD.2Identify and gather data for statistical questions focused on both categorical and numerical data. Select an appropriate data display (bar graph, pictograph, dot plot). Make observations from the graph about the questions posed
  • KY.5.MD.3Recognize volume as an attribute of solid figures and understand concepts of volume measurement
  • KY.5.MD.4Measure volumes by counting unit cubic cm, cubic in, cubic ft. and improvised units
  • KY.5.MD.5Relate volume to the operations of multiplication and addition and solve real world and mathematical problems involving volume
  • KY.5.NBTNumber and Operations in Base Ten
  • KY.5.NBT.1Recognize that in a multi-digit number, a digit in one place represents 10 times as much as it represents in the place to its right and1/10of what it represents in the place to its left
  • KY.5.NBT.2Multiply and divide by powers of 10. Explain patterns in the number of zeros of the product when multiplying a number by powers of 10. Explain patterns in the placement of the decimal point when a decimal is multiplied or divided by a power of 10. Use whole-number exponents to denote powers of 10
  • KY.5.NBT.3Read, write and compare decimals to thousandths
  • KY.5.NBT.4Use place value understanding to round decimals to any place
  • KY.5.NBT.5Fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers (not to exceed four-digit by two-digit multiplication) using an algorithm
  • KY.5.NBT.6Divide up to four-digit dividends by two-digit divisors
  • KY.5.NBT.7Operations with decimals to hundredths
  • KY.5.NFNumber and Operations–Fractions
  • KY.5.NF.1Efficiently add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators (including mixed numbers) by: using reasoning strategies, such as counting up on a number line or creating visual fraction models; finding common denominators
  • KY.5.NF.2Solve word problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions
  • KY.5.NF.3Interpret a fraction as division of the numerator by the denominator (a/b=a÷b). Solve word problems involving division of whole numbers leading to answers in the form of fractions or mixed numbers by using visual fraction models or equations to represent the problem
  • KY.5.NF.4Apply and extend previous understanding of multiplication to multiply a fraction or whole number by a fraction
  • KY.5.NF.5Interpret multiplication as scaling (resizing), by:
  • KY.5.NF.6Solve real world problems involving multiplication of fractions and mixed numbers
  • KY.5.NF.7Apply and extend previous understandings of division to divide unit fractions by whole numbers and whole numbers by unit fractions
  • KY.5.OAOperations and Algebraic Thinking
  • KY.5.OA.1Use parentheses, brackets or braces in numerical expressions and evaluate expressions that include symbols
  • KY.5.OA.2Write simple expressions with numbers and interpret numerical expressions without evaluating them
  • KY.5.OA.3Generate numerical patterns for situations
