Use this three act task to have students make predictions and determine which area is the greatest.

Use this three act task to have students create different representations to determine how many cups will have the stacks be the same height. Use to come up with a plan to solve systems of equations.

Use this three act task as students are learning about constant rate of change, slope and linear functions.

This task has students determine how much some yogurt costs. There are multiple ways to approach this problem including unit rates, proportions and scale factors. Allow your students to think creatively and critically as they work through this task.

We hope that you and your students enjoy this experience as they develop new connections and appreciations for art, indigenous heritage, and mathematizing the world.

Firefighter Allocation: Standard 6.EE.7 Solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations of the form x + a = b and ax = b for cases in which a, b and x are all non-negative rational numbers.
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).

From Data to Instructional Response is a guiding document that is a flow chart from screening assessments, like Acadience Math, to selecting and implementing a targeted intervention. It gives suggestions on how to design an instructional response to a student's data and current performance.

This three-act math task utilizes videos and questioning to help students explore factors and multiples.

Hummingbirds: Standard 6.RP.3 Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world (with a context) and mathematical (void of context) problems, using strategies such as reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations involving unit rate problems.

TuvaLabs Data Stories provide resources for teachers to engage students in rich discourse about an interesting topic and then allows students to come to conclusions using mathematical reasoning and tools.

It Gets Cold in Yellowknife: Standard 6.NS.6 Understand a rational number as a point on the number line. Extend number line diagrams and coordinate axes familiar from previous grades to represent points on the line and in the plane with negative number coordinates.

Open Middle tasks provide opportunities for student to approach a mathematical task using different strategies and representations. They can be used as a warm-up/closing activity, as a formative assessment, or to facilitate discourse and discussion and get insite into student thinking and problem solving. These tasks provide a great opportunity for student to engage with the Standards for Mathematical Practice.
