The Menu of Resources for Using Acadience Math Results is a compliation of links to resources for data analysis, instructional decisions, and intervention.
In this lesson, students will practice using preterite tense to narrate in the past by describing the craziest day of their life. Students will tell their story on Adobe Spark Video.
Middle School Game Night: Standard 7.SP.7 Develop a probability model and use it to find probabilities of events. Compare probabilities from a model to observed frequencies; if the agreement is not good, explain possible sources of the discrepancy.
This formative assessment exemplar was created by a team of Utah educators to be used as a resource in the classroom. It was reviewed for appropriateness by a Bias and Sensitivity/Special Education team and by state mathematics leaders. While no assessment is perfect, it is intended to be used as a formative tool that enables teachers to obtain evidence of student learning, identify assets and gaps in that learning, and adjust instruction for the two dimensions that are important for mathematical learning experiences (i.e., Standards for Mathematical Practice, Major Work of the Grade).
Middle School Text Messages: Standard 7.SP.2 Use data from a random sample to draw inferences about a population with an unknown characteristic of interest. Generate multiple samples (or simulated samples) of the same size to gauge the variation in estimates or predictions. For example, estimate the mean word length in a book by randomly sampling words from the book; predict the winner of a school election based on randomly sampled survey data. Gauge how far off the estimate or prediction might be.

This reference is a series of assessment items that require that the students think through momentum conceptually, analyze graphs related to impulse and momentum, and work through calculations using momentum and impulse. There are energy and momentum problems mixed together in this set. Due to the large number of assessment items, the instructor will want to select a portion of the questions rather than use the entire set as a single assessment. The webpage is formatted in a straight forward text so it is easy to copy and paste the items for use in classroom tests and quizzes.
This lesson will engage students in understanding the impact Mormon pioneer settlers had on Native American tribes living in Utah. Students will also understand and appreciate the role that Mormon pioneer settlers had on the eventual settling of Utah. Students will be assessed by creating an Apple Pages project wherein they demonstrate their understanding of the two issues. Students are asked to create an essay including images about the impact Mormon pioneer settlement of Utah had on Native Americans. Image Credit: North Wind Picture Archives
This lesson supports the 1st-grade science core strand 1.2: The Needs of Living Things and Their Offspring. Students obtain, evaluate, and communicate information about mother and baby animals and begin to construct an explanation of patterns in the behavior of parents and offspring which helps offspring to survive.

This lesson is a great resource for a Health class when studying nutrition as well as Directed Study or Study Skill classes with life skills standards. The lesson engages students in creating healthy meals with the MyPlate guidelines, as well as has them practice their photography basic techniques. Directed Studies Standard IL3 (Independent Living 3) Students will demonstrate healthy eating and my plate. Health Strand 5 Standard 6.N.1: Locate age appropreiate guidelines for eating and physical activity.
In this unit of study, students will research topics in nanotechnology and attempt to identify a mystery mixture of different powders using a scanning-electron microscope. This unit integrates nine STEM attributes and was developed as part of the South Metro-Salem STEM Partnership's Teacher Leadership Team. Any instructional materials are included within this unit of study.
In this assessment lesson, students review key information about perimeter before participating in a variety of assessment activities. Using this assessment, teachers are able to assess student understanding of measuring the perimeter of polygons.
