• recognize reasoning and proof as fundamental aspects of mathematics; • make and investigate mathematical conjectures; • develop and evaluate mathematical arguments and proofs; • select and use various types of reasoning and methods of proof.

• create and use representations to organize, record, and communicate mathematical ideas; • select, apply, and translate among mathematical representations to solve problems; • use representations to model and interpret physical, social, and mathematical phenomena.

• recognize and use connections among mathematical ideas; • understand how mathematical ideas interconnect and build on one another to produce a coherent whole; • recognize and apply mathematics in contexts outside of mathematics.

• organize and consolidate their mathematical thinking through communication; • communicate their mathematical thinking coherently and clearly to peers, teachers, and others; • analyze and evaluate the mathematical thinking and strategies of others; • use the language of mathematics to express mathematical ideas precisely.

• build new mathematical knowledge through problem solving; • solve problems that arise in mathematics and in other contexts; • apply and adapt a variety of appropriate strategies to solve problems; • monitor and reflect on the process of mathematical problem solving.

Instructional programs from prekindergarten through grade 12 should enable all students to:

Teacher Guide Our resource has been created for ease of use by both TEACHERS and STUDENTS alike. Introduction

The NCTM Content Standards Assessment Rubric (page 4) is a useful tool for evaluating work in many of the activities in our resource. The Review (pages 24-26) is divided by grade and can be used for a follow-up review or assessment at the completion of the unit.

ur resource offers ready-to-use worksheet activities for students in grades three to five. Math concepts outlined by the NCTM are presented in a way that encourages students to learn and review important concepts. Our resource can be used effectively for whole-class, small group and independent work. This book’s exercises vary in difficulty and content so as to provide teachers and students with a variety of teaching and learning opportunities. Included are problems using multiplication and division, place value, fractions, percent and decimals. Visual models are included to assist visual learners. Teachers may also choose to use mathematics manipulatives along with the exercises included in this book to help address the needs of kinesthetic learners.

How Is Our Resource Organized?



STUDENT HANDOUTS Reproducible task sheets and drill sheets make up the majority of our resource. The task sheets contain challenging problem-solving tasks, many centered around ‘real-world’ ideas or problems, which push the boundaries of critical thought and demonstrate to students why mathematics is important and applicable in the real world. It is not expected that all activities will be used, but are offered for variety and flexibility in teaching and assessment. Many of the task sheet problems offer space for reflection, and opportunity for the appropriate use of technology, as encouraged by the NCTM’s Principles & Standards for School Mathematics.

Marking students’ worksheets is fast and easy with this Answer Key. Answers are listed in columns – just line up the column with its corresponding worksheet, as shown, and see how every question matches up with its answer! NAME:

Principles & Standards Principles & Standards for School Mathematics outlines the essential components of an effective school mathematics program. The NCTM’s Principles & Standards for School Mathematics The Principles are the fundamentals to an effective mathematics education. The Standards are descriptions of what mathematics instruction should enable students to learn. Together the Principles and Standards offer a comprehensive and coherent set of learning goals, serving as a resource to teachers and a framework for curriculum. Our resource offers exercises written to the NCTM Process and Content Standards and is inspired by the Principles outlined below.

Six Principles for School Mathematics Equity Curriculum Teaching

EQUITY: All students can learn mathematics when they have access to high-quality instruction, including reasonable and appropriate accommodation and appropriately challenging content. CURRICULUM: The curriculum must be coherent, focused, and well articulated across the grades, with ideas linked to and building on one another to deepen students’ knowledge and understanding. TEACHING: Effective teaching requires understanding what students know and need to learn and then challenging and supporting them to learn it well.

Learning

LEARNING: By aligning factual knowledge and procedural proficiency with conceptual knowledge, students can become effective learners, reflecting on their thinking and learning from their mistakes.

Assessment

ASSESSMENT: The tasks teachers select for assessment convey a message to students about what kinds of knowledge and performance are valued. Feedback promotes goal-setting, responsibility, and independence.

Technology

TECHNOLOGY: Students can develop a deeper understanding of mathematics with the appropriate use of technology, which can allow them to focus on decision making, reflection, reasoning, and problem solving.

Our resource correlates to the six Principles and provides teachers with supplementary materials which can aid them in fulfilling the expectations of each principle. The exercises provided allow for variety and flexibility in teaching and assessment. The topical division of concepts and processes promotes linkage and the building of conceptual knowledge and understanding throughout the student’s grade and elementary school career. Task sheet problems offer space for reflection, and opportunity for the appropriate use of technology. The drill sheets are provided to help students with their procedural proficiency skills. 6

Caleb’s teacher, Mrs. Kendell, decides to raise money for a class trip through the sale of candy. Imagine you are Mrs. Kendell and that you have to place an order for candy on the internet.

Go to a site such as www.metrocandy.com/bulk-candy. Imagine you have $100.00 to spend. On a separate piece of paper place your imaginary order, listing your selections and the cost. Be sure not to ‘spend’ over $100.00 (including shipping).

Josh is given a taste of Caleb’s candy and likes it so much he decides to buy his own. He doesn’t have much money so he decides to shop around for the best buy. He visits three stores offering the same kind of candy his friend Caleb bought. He would like to buy at least 50 so he can share with his friends. • Maggie’s Mart sells a package of 50 for $1.49 • Fred’s Farm-a-cee sells a package of 25 for .75¢ • Junior’s Candy Palace sells them individually for .03¢ each.
