Pennsylvania 5th Grade Math Curriculum | StudyPugHelp
ID | Standard | StudyPug Topic |
|---|---|---|
5.OA.A.1 | Use parentheses, brackets, or braces in numerical expressions, and evaluate expressions with these symbols. |
5.OA.A.2 | Write simple expressions that record calculations with numbers, and interpret numerical expressions without evaluating them. |
5.OA.B.3 | Generate two numerical patterns using two given rules. Identify apparent relationships between corresponding terms. Form ordered pairs consisting of corresponding terms from the two patterns, and graph the ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. |
5.NBT.A.1 | Recognize 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 and 1/10 of what it represents in the place to its left. |
5.NBT.A.2 | Explain patterns in the number of zeros of the product when multiplying a number by powers of 10, and 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. |
5.NBT.A.3 | Read, write, and compare decimals to thousandths. |
5.NBT.A.4 | Use place value understanding to round decimals to any place. |
5.NBT.B.5 | Fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm. |
5.NBT.B.6 | Find whole-number quotients of whole numbers with up to four-digit dividends and two-digit divisors, using strategies based on place value, the properties of operations, and/or the relationship between multiplication and division. |
5.NBT.B.7 | Add, subtract, multiply, and divide decimals to hundredths, using concrete models or drawings and strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction. |
5.NF.A.1 | Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators (including mixed numbers) by replacing given fractions with equivalent fractions in such a way as to produce an equivalent sum or difference of fractions with like denominators. |
5.NF.A.2 | Solve word problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions referring to the same whole, including cases of unlike denominators. |
5.NF.B.3 | Interpret a fraction as division of the numerator by the denominator (a/b = a ÷ b). |
5.NF.B.4 | Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication to multiply a fraction or whole number by a fraction. |
5.NF.B.6 | Solve real world problems involving multiplication of fractions and mixed numbers. |
5.NF.B.7 | Apply and extend previous understandings of division to divide unit fractions by whole numbers and whole numbers by unit fractions. |
5.MD.3 | Recognize volume as an attribute of solid figures and understand concepts of volume measurement. |
5.G.1 | Use a pair of perpendicular number lines, called axes, to define a coordinate system. |
5.G.2 | Represent 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. |

How StudyPug Supports Pennsylvania 5th Grade Students
StudyPug provides video lessons and practice problems for every topic in the Pennsylvania 5th grade math curriculum. Students can find the exact topic they are working on in class, watch a clear step-by-step explanation, and then practice with problems to check their understanding.
Whether your child is working on fractions, struggling with decimal operations, or preparing for the PSSA Math assessment, StudyPug covers it all. Lessons are short — most run 5 to 15 minutes — so students can fit practice into any schedule.
Aligned to Pennsylvania Core Standards in Math
Every lesson on StudyPug is mapped directly to the Pennsylvania Core Standards in Math for 5th grade. Parents and students can use the topic table above to find the exact standard they need and jump straight to the right lesson. No searching through textbooks or guessing which topic to study next.
Preparing for the PSSA in 5th Grade
Pennsylvania administers the PSSA Math test to students in grades 3 through 8. 5th grade is a tested year, so strong preparation matters. StudyPug's practice problems mirror the types of questions students see on the PSSA, giving them confidence going into test day. Topics like multi-digit multiplication, fraction operations, and volume are all covered in full.
