Great job on your math test!
Here are some of the answers from the test. Most of you did really well. Here are the samples:
Knowledge and Understanding - If you were able to answer all 4 questions correctly, using at least 2 different strategies you got a Level 4.
Thinking - In this question as it was a thinking question I wanted to see not only how you got the answer (multiplying 12 x 50) but I also wanted to know that you could give me a reason why, or justify, why we would have enough stickers. (e.g., Since we would have 600 packages, and there are only 400 students at Bellmere, we would have almost 200 extra packages.)
Communication - It was funny that everyone picked Option #2 to answer. :) To achieve a 4 you needed to not only get a number that was close to 2600 but identify why it was close (e.g., 2650 is only 50 more than 2600 and this is pretty close to the product of 2600).
Application - Many of you got a Level 4 on this question. As long as you applied what you know about problem solving and multiplication of two-digit numbers, you were able to get this Level 4. There were many interesting problems written. Some of you wrote about chocolate and others wrote about early civilizations....A few people even wrote about cans of coke :) They would have gotten a Level 4+ if they wrote about Diet Coke or Coke Zero :) Just kidding :)
