Description

Inspire entrepreneurship with this math task focused on getting the biggest bang for your buck! Students will identify unit rates, find the area of a rectangle, create simple equations, calculate pay, and compare situations to determine the greatest profit for their lawn service. With six low-prep versions of the task, your students will soon be confident and competent in using geometry and equations to find real-world solutions.

The following downloads are included with this product:

  • Instructions for teachers
  • Bermuda Lawn Care Services Math Performance Task (6 versions)
  • Bermuda Lawn Care Services Answer Key (6 versions)

The purpose of the Bermuda Lawn Care Services Math Performance Task is to prepare students for real-life math applications while also preparing them for standardized testing. This task has a multitude of utilizations. There are six versions of the task, each version has the same context but different numbers. These tasks are perfect for collaborative class activities, individual proficiency practice, homework assignments, quizzes, or end-of-unit assessments.

Students become successful as they become more familiar with math applications! Give your students version A-D and let them work collaboratively. Once they have mastered the concepts, give version E as a quiz to prepare them for the end-of-unit assessment. Use version F as a spiral review before standardized testing. There is no better feeling than looking at a test and knowing that you know it!

This task gives students an opportunity to compute unit rates using a real-world geometry problem. Students will find the area of the lawn in square yards, convert those square yards to square feet, and calculate the square yards mowed based on time, and money earned based on square yards mowed. They will analyze productivity based on working individually and collaboratively. Students will exhibit competence with math content standards 7.G.6, 7.RP.1, 7.RP.2, 7.EE.2, 7.EE.3, 7.NS.2, 7.NS.3, and mathematical practices standards MP1, MP2, MP4, MP5, MP6, and MP7.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, volume and surface area of two- and three-dimensional objects composed of triangles, quadrilaterals, polygons, cubes, and right prisms.
Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division and of fractions to multiply and divide rational numbers.
Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving the four operations with rational numbers.
Understand that rewriting an expression in different forms in a problem context can shed light on the problem and how the quantities in it are related. For example, 𝘢 + 0.05𝘢 = 1.05𝘢 means that “increase by 5%” is the same as “multiply by 1.05.”
Solve multi-step real-life and mathematical problems posed with positive and negative rational numbers in any form (whole numbers, fractions, and decimals), using tools strategically. Apply properties of operations to calculate with numbers in any form; convert between forms as appropriate; and assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies. For example: If a woman making $25 an hour gets a 10% raise, she will make an additional 1/10 of her salary an hour, or $2.50, for a new salary of $27.50. If you want to place a towel bar 9 3/4 inches long in the center of a door that is 27 1/2 inches wide, you will need to place the bar about 9 inches from each edge; this estimate can be used as a check on the exact computation.
