⚽ Soccer Tournament is a project based learning unit based all around hosting a soccer tournament based on Numbers in Base Ten, and Measurement and Data. This 5th grade resource contains a standards-based unit in both printable PDF and Google Slides versions - so it's the perfect activity to increase engagement and interest in the classroom or distance learning. Students follow instructions to work within a budget, calculate income from registrations, subtract expenses, review soccer practice statistics, create a line plot, and more. Additional "challenge activities" engage students and develop further understanding of the concepts and skills.
Standards Addressed:
- 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, properties of operations, and/or relationship between multiplication and division.
- 5.NBT.B.7 Perform all operations with decimals to hundredths, using concrete models, drawings, and strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between add./sub., relate to a written method, and explain the reasoning.
- 5.MD.A.1 Convert among different sized standard measurement units within a given measurement system. Use in solving multi-step real world problems.
- 5.MD.B.2 Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit. Solve problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions by using information presented in line plots.
🛋️ Design, Create, Dream is a project based learning unit based all around redesigning and redecorating your bedroom. This resource contains a standards-based unit in both printable PDF and Google Slides versions - so it's the activity to increase engagement and interest in the classroom or distance learning. Students follow instructions to plan, budget, model, and design the perfect bedroom. Additional "challenge activities" engage students and develop further understanding of the concepts and skills.
