Performance Task
It's time to put your knowledge to the test with a performance task! This task will serve as your final assessment for this module and you will be using the skills you've gained from your lessons. You may work with a math partner to complete this performance task.
Objectives:
You will:
Objectives:
- I can interpret products of whole numbers
- I can interpret whole number quotients of whole numbers
- I can apply properties of operations as strategies to multiply and divide
- I can use multiplication and division within 100 to solve word problems
- I can use addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division to write and solve word problems
You will:
- Create two multi-step word problems - one problem must include multiplication and another math operation and the other problem must include division and another math operation
- Produce two multi-step word problems in ClassKick that your classmates can solve
- Solve word problems created by your classmates in ClassKick
How to get started:
- Who is in your story problem?
- What are they doing? Going to the pool? Getting lunch at a restaurant? Going grocery shopping?
- Bring the math in when you decide what is going on in the story. If they are getting lunch in a restaurant, maybe they want four pieces of pizza, and each piece is $3.00. If they are grocery shopping, maybe they want six apples at $2.00 each.
- Once you have your scenario, put together your word problem.
- Explain what math operations were needed to solve your word problem and supply the answer.
Example:
Here's a word problem example and the math operations used to solve it:
Three friends go apple picking. They pick 13 apples on Saturday and 14 apples on Sunday. They share the apples equally. How many apples does each person get?
1.) I add 13 and 14 together to get 27
2.) I then divide the 27 apples equally between the 3 friends to get 9 apples.

Your Turn:
- Now it's your turn to be creative and to write your two multi-step word problems!
- You will be writing your word problems using ClassKick.
- Click here to access your performance task or type the code LDCPJX in your ClassKick app - Don't forget to include both names if you are working with a math partner.
