DECIMAL DIVISION NOTECARD ASSESSMENT

If students did not make a 100% we had a quick conference and they got an additional attempt to make a 100%. If this attempt was unsuccessful they had another conference and 1 last attempt. They were able to keep their highest score.

After the assessment students took notes from the board over an introduction to Integers. This was to be written on page 18 of their notebook. For my students who need accommodation I gave them a copy with words removed for them to fill in the missing word from the board. They could then just tape their paper to page 18.

Lastly students used the keywords to help them write an integer for each situation on a practice worksheet that I found on http://www.math-aids.com

MULTIPLYING DECIMALS - QUICK ASSESSMENT

All students were given an envelope with a mystery word inside. On the outside was a multiplication problem and a post-it note.
1.)Students had to work the problem.
2.) Students then ordered themselves by their answers in least to greatest order.
3.) When they were confident in their placement they opened their envelopes to reveal their words.
*this was a super activity for a quick assessment over 2 skills.

MULTIPLYING DECIMALS RELAY

Even though I wasn’t really interested in speed, sometimes a little competition is encouraging. Students were randomly placed into groups of 3. They were then handed 10 problems. Each person could only work 1 step until the entire problem was complete. If the next person noticed an error they had to go backward to fix the mistake. When the problems were finished I checked them for accuracy.

MULTIPLICATION & DIVISION ANALYSIS

Students worked with their groups to analyze the work at their station. They could choose to work it themselves and then compare, or they could walk through the work and look for the mistakes. Not all problems had mistakes so most felt they were safer to work it themselves and then compare.

This is a review activity for us before we take our quiz tomorrow.
