Identify Fractions on a Number Line
- Grade:
- 3
- Subject:
- Math
This number sense lesson focuses on identifying fractions on a number line. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read the question and verify the number of sections on the number line from 0 to 1 match the denominator value. If it's different, they will create an equivalent fraction with a matching denominator. Then, they identify the location of a point on the number line using the numerator and circle the correct answer. In addition to the lesson, there are eight pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.
Identify Equivalent Fractions
- Grade:
- 3
- Subject:
- Math
Recognize and generate simple equivalent fractions, e.g., 1/2 = 2/4, 4/6 = 2/3. Explain why the fractions are equivalent, e.g., by using a visual fraction model.
Divide Decimal Numbers
- Grade:
- 5
- Subject:
- Math
This number sense lesson focuses on dividing decimal numbers. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students change the problem into long division form, if necessary, and move the decimal point in the divisor to change it to a whole number, if necessary. Then, move the decimal point in the dividend the same number of places. Finally, they divide the decimal numbers and put a decimal point in the quotient above the decimal point in the dividend. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of Independent Practice and Periodic Reviews with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items and eight flash cards on changing to long division form.
Identify Decimals on a Number Line (Hundredths Place)
- Grade:
- 5
- Subject:
- Math
This number sense lesson focuses on identifying decimal numbers on a number line. The lesson includes research-based strategies and questions that help prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students determine which two whole numbers the decimal number is between the number line, and locate the point between the whole numbers. Then, they label the correct decimal, if needed. In addition to the lesson, there are five pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.
Plot and Locate Points on a Coordinate Plane
- Grade:
- 5
- Subject:
- Math
This geometry lesson covers how to locate and plot an ordered pair on a coordinate plane. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students will learn how to determine the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate, and then identify the location on the grid.
Plot Points on a Coordinate Plane
- Grade:
- 6
- Subject:
- Math
This geometry lesson covers how to plot an ordered pair on a coordinate plane. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students will learn how to determine the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate, and then plot the coordinates on the grid.
Identify the Location of an Ordered Pair
- Grade:
- 6
- Subject:
- Math
This number system lesson teaches students how to identify the location of an ordered pair. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students will identify the location of ordered pairs on the coordinate plane. This lesson includes plotting numbers on all four quadrants of the coordinate plane.
Revise Writing for Consistent Point of View
- Grade:
- 8
- Subject:
- English Language Arts
This writing strategies lesson focuses on revising writing from a consistent point of view. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read the passage and underline all pronouns used. Then, they determine if the first, second, or third person is used in each sentence. Then, they identify any sentences that use an inconsistent point of view and rewrite it. Finally, they reread the passage as revised and explain how this change maintains a consistent point of view. In addition to the lesson, there are four more pages for Independent Practice and review modeled after current adaptive testing items.
Explain How the Author Develops Point of View
- Grade:
- Subject:
- English Language Arts
This literary response and analysis lesson focuses on contrasting points of view. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read a passage and identify who is telling the story and their point of view (1st person, 3rd person). Then, if the narrator is 3rd person, students scan the text again identifying keywords that signal whether the narrator is 3rd person omniscient or limited. In addition to the lesson, there are eight pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.
