Unit 5 Test is this Thursday 11/20

GCF via Ladder Method

LCM via Ladder Method

p11: 1-10; p13: 17-25 (Volume 1, Ch1-1)

Rewrite the problem. Show your thinking (factor trees with prime numbers OR the Ladder Method). Label and circle your answer (GCF = or LCM =).

Work together. If you need help, get help. And be sure to check answers while you're working.

Before discussing the GCF and LCM problems, turn to your elbow partner and tell them which one is the smaller and which one is the bigger: factors or multiples.

When you are in agreement, show each other at least one LCM and one GCF problem from yesterday that you answered correctly.

Discuss any problems that were challenging.

Please raise your hand to let me know!

After reviewing your tests, I see that EVERYONE has been working hard and doing their best. I am proud of YOU.

Take a moment to reflect on the efforts you put into this unit:

During vertical collaboration, have you been working with your groups: engaging in the conversations, asking question when you're confused, really focusing on the math?

When working on the CYUqs, are you doing 8-12 problems? Are you focusing on the medium levels, trying a few spicy questions, checking answers, and asking for help if you need it?

Here's how I graded this assessment: There were 3 questions per learning goal: mild, medium, and spicy. If you correctly answered 3 questions, score is a 4; if 2 were correct, score is a 3; if 1 was correct, score is a 2; if none were correct, score is a 1

When you look at PowerSchool, Qs 1-3 are U5T1, Qs 4-6 are U5T2, Qs 7-9 are U5T3*, Qs 10-12 are U5T4, Qs 13-15 are U5T5*

Refer to the Proficiency Levels to know what your work says about where you are right now in terms of your understanding on the key learning target(s):

The most important part of the test happens right now: reviewing your work and learning from mistakes.

1. Open Pear Assessment. On your paper test, make a smiley face by the questions you correctly answered. Make a check mark by the ones you missed.

2. Find an expert to help you with the problem you missed. Compare and contrast your work and their work. Ask questions. Think. Don't copy.

3. On your corrections worksheet, neatly rewrite the problem, show your thinking, and circle the correct answer.

4. Before moving to the next problem, write down your mistake and what you will do to not make that mistake again.

* If you are curious to know what 3's and 4's looked like, review the randomly chosen exemplars (provided in class)
