Description
Prepare your students for success on SBAC and CAASPP assessments with this engaging 5th Grade Math Performance Task: Design a Park. This real-world, standards-aligned activity gives students meaningful practice with area, perimeter, multi-step problem solving, and budgeting while working through a structured, test-like experience.
Students take on the role of park designers, using a data table to plan park spaces, calculate dimensions, determine total costs, and make decisions within a budget. This performance task mirrors SBAC-style expectations, helping students build confidence, stamina, and mathematical reasoning skills.
