Identify the problem type for each story problem below:

1. Ellen went to a garage sale to buy chairs. Each chair cost 15 dollars. How

much money did Ellen spend for the 4 chairs she bought?

2. Latanya loved to collect crickets. She could put 2 crickets in each of her jars.

How many jars did she need for the 8 crickets she found?

3. There are 7 cars to take Ms. Lee's class to the zoo. If there are 28 children in

her class, how many children will ride in each car?

4. Lila lives in a house with 13 rooms. Her art collection contains 40 paintings.

She would like to hang the same number of paintings in each room of her

house. How many paintings will she put in each room?

5. Albert has 2 snakes. The garden snake is 10 inches long. The boa constrictor

is 3 times as long as the garden snake. How long is the boa constrictor?

Juan solved 38 x 7 using compensation strategies. His work is shown below.

38 x 7

38 + 2 = 40

40 x 7 = 280

2 x 7 = 14

280 + 14 = 294

Did Juan solve the problem correctly? Explain your reasoning.

Kids find it fun to build arrays out of various objects, so here are some options for you to choose from. Choose one object for your array, and:

Build an array to represent 4 x 6.

Break down the array in 2 ways.

Explain why you broke the array down in those ways and what properties are related in both cases.

Each of these objects have duplicates underneath. You just need to drag and drop to make arrays. You don’t have to copy and paste.

# 3

Solve the multiplication problem using the partial product multiplication strategy. You can type the numbers into the slide or work on paper and submit .jpgs, .pngs. or .pdfs.

14 x 56

23 x 186

These are tables so you can type directly into the tables in the downloaded PPT.

# 5

Solve the multiplication problem using the open array model. You can type the numbers into this table or work on paper and submit .jpgs, .pngs. or .pdfs.

Work the problem below with base 10 blocks using an area model. You may use the objects on this slide or you may draw objects and submit .jpg, .png, or .pdf files. Each of the objects have duplicates underneath. You just need to drag and drop. You don’t have to copy and paste.

Hundreds

Tens

Ones

16 x 12

# 6

Solve this division problem using either the Repeated Subtraction Method or the Partial Quotients Method. Be sure to show your tracking system of related multiplication facts and partial quotients.

# 7

Hundreds

Ones

Tens

Solve this division problem using the Explicit Trade Method using Base Ten Blocks. You may show the explicit trade algorithm along with your work with the blocks if you would like, but you do not have to. (Hint: Check Van de Walle page 289 & Division Repeated Subtraction & Explicit Trade .mp4 for guided practice on the explicit trade method.) There are visual base ten blocks to the right and grouping ovals below the blocks that you may use, but it just as acceptable to draw and submit scans or use concrete base ten blocks and submit pictures.

# 9

Solve the following problem using visual representations. Explain and justify your answer.

8 girls share 3 pizzas, and 3 boys share 1 pizza… which group gets more pizza? How do you know?

# 10

Is 34 + 52 = 35 + 51 a true statement?

How do you know?

Is 241 – 188 = 244 – 185 a true statement?

How do you know?

Read the following article, which is also attached in the CourseDen. Jo Boaler is well known for her approaches to helping children achieve fact fluency, often using Number Talk techniques rather than memorization and timed testing. You may want to check out the YouCubed website with which Boaler is associated. Please note that the article starts on page 5 of the PDF file. For this question, write a reflection that addresses the following: (1) your own early learning experiences with timed tests; (2) an honest account of your own teaching practices, including both glows and grows, based on this article; and (3) how you might reform your practice based on this article. If you have not begun your teaching career yet, consider your field placement or goals for future classrooms. Your reflection will be graded based on how thoughtful and thorough you are in discussing those 3 prompts. You may add a slide and attach the reflection directly into the powerpoint, or attach as a separate document in the dropbox for the midterm assessment.
