This Common Formative Assessment is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. It aligns to the multiplication and division concepts in Grade 5 Cluster 2. Teachers can give the assessment at one time or split the items up and have students work on them during the whole cluster. This is remixable but please maintain the level of rigor and an answer key.

This super-helpful chart outlines the mental math strategies students should be exposed to through Number Talks in grades K-5.  Each strategy is linked to a video of a teacher introducing/explaining how to use that stratgy.  This chart is the perfect companion for teachers implementing Number Talks in their classrooms!

This video demonstrates the functions of the TI-15 calculator. It may be used as a professional development for teachers, or for training students. It is not recommended that the video is shown to students in its entirety. If you scroll down to the comments section under the video, time markers for each function are provided. Click on the time markers to go directly to that specific function.

Students strengthen their communicate skills about measurements by learning the meaning of base units and derived units, including speed one of the most common derived units (distance/time). Working in groups, students measure the time for LEGO MINDSTORMS(TM) NXT robots to move a certain distance. The robots are started and stopped via touch sensors and programmed to display the distance traveled. Using their collected data, students complete a worksheet to calculate the robots' (mean/average) speeds at given motor powers.

This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach third graders about understanding division with remainders and illustrations.

In this unit, children learn how to use a variety of math tools/strategies to solve problems. This unit lays the foundation for developing multiplication and division strategies.
