This task asks students to solve some constructed response questions involving division of unit fractions and whole numbers. Students will also multiply decimals and be asked to write a letter than explains mathematically why one sugar substitute is a better deal than another. Standards: 5.NF.7; 5.NF.7a; 5.NF.7b; 5.NF.7c Claim 2: Problem Solving Mathematical Practice 2: Reason abstractly and quantitatively

In this task, students will be asked to solve a series of problems using the four operations with whole numbers and decimals to the hundredths. They will then need to create a plan for a purchase order. Standards: 5.NBT.6; 5.NBT.7 Claim 2: Problem Solving Mathematical Practice 2: Reason abstractly and quantitatively

This five-part task asks students to reason which payment plan would be the best to save money, multiply whole number and decimals (money), and find patterns in numbers, all the while explaining their thinking. Great practice for SBAC and building math stamina!

This task asks students to make schedules, adjust schedules, determine the costs of both ticket prices and food items using operations involving adding/subtracting decimals (money), converting minutes to hours, and more.

These problems are designed to challenge your students and provide them an opportunity to develop their reasoning skills in math. The pdf can be projected for whole-class direct instruction or printed for center work or independent practice. Following each problem, I have provided the correct answer as well as the rationale of why students may have chosen the incorrect answers. This will help you pinpoint the direction of your students' thinking for reteach or intervention uses. Standards covere

I've noticed most kids have area/perimeter down when the problem states outright "Find the area/perimeter." However, I've found they struggle much more when given a scenario that doesn't tell them which to find. So I've created a set of ten that not only challenge them to determine which one to find, but also have multiple steps.

50 rigorous word problems appropriate for upper elementary students. Each page has one word problem, plus work space, a place to write the answer, and lines to explain how the problem was solved. These problems cover a variety of math concepts, including multi-step problems, operations, fractions, decimals, measurement, and more. Answer key is included.

This review covers a variety of skills such as comparing fractions and decimals, completing tables, equivalent fractions, word problems, unknown product or sum, and more in the style of SBAC questions.
