Five Math Performance Tasks for Go Math! Grade 6 for....anytime!
In my humble opinion, the performance tasks in the Go Math! series are not that strong, relevant, or well-worded for kids. They don't look much like the "real deal" for state tests either. I put together 5 performance tasks here that cover several areas from different chapters ranging from percents to graphing to absolute value, coordinate planes to integers and statistical questions. This would be great for review, spiral review, or test prep for state testing. It's a "greatest hits" that would
