Benchmark Expectations. Several of the Expectations are prioritized as Benchmark Expectations because they are particularly important concepts and skills to be learned in this unit. Benchmark Expectations identify the concepts and skills that are central to the unit, are prerequisites for learning content in an upcoming unit, are the last significant opportunity for assessment in the curriculum or grade, or are concepts commonly associated with difficulties or misconceptions. These Expectations are marked with a red circle in the Key Assessment Opportunities Chart.

Feedback Boxes. Feedback Boxes are provided with several activities to report progress toward these Expectations. Look for the box ( ) on the Unit 7 Key Assessment Opportunities Chart. See Figure 2. In this unit, students will also get better acquainted with the Math Practices Expectations by discussing them in the context of a specific problem, receiving feedback, reviewing a peer's work, and revising their work.

Unit 7 Expectations

Math Content

Content Expectations. The Expectations assessed in this unit focus on concepts of number and operations, specifically concepts of multiplication. Because all the Algebra Key Ideas arise from and are closely connected to ideas in the other content strands, Expectations related to algebra will also be listed under a second content strand. For example:

Number 1. Number Sense. Understand the base-ten number system, recognize relationships among quantities and numbers, and represent numbers in multiple ways.

E3. Demonstrate understanding of the place value concepts and mathematical properties involved in operations with multidigit numbers (e.g., use the distributive property to multiply). (Algebra 4)

The Content section of the Unit 7 Key Assessment Opportunities Chart identifies some of the activities in the unit that are appropriate for assessing students' abilities with expectations related to these algebra and number concepts. The Math Facts section of the same chart identifies activities in the unit that are appropriate for assessing students' multiplication facts strategies.

Number 1

Number Sense: Understand the base-ten number system, recognize relationships among quantities and numbers, and represent numbers in multiple ways.

E1

Use divisibility rules to identify factors and multiples. [4.OA.4] [MP1, 2, 3, 7]

Number 2

Operations: Understand the meaning of numerical operations and their application for solving problems.

E2

Multiply numbers that are multiples of ten. [4.NBT.1] [MP1, 2, 4, 6]

E3

Demonstrate understanding of the place value concepts and mathematical properties involved in operations with multidigit numbers (e.g., use the distributive property to multiply). (Algebra 4) [4.NBT.4, 5] [MP1, 2, 6]

E4

Show connections between models and strategies for multiplication (e.g., demonstrate partial products using a rectangle model for multiplication). [4.NBT.5] [MP1, 4]

Number 3

Computation and Estimation: Use efficient and flexible procedures to compute accurately and make reasonable estimates.

E5

Follow the order of operations. [5.OA.1] [MP1]

E6

Estimate products. [4.OA.3; 4.NBT.3] [MP1, 2, 6]

E7

Multiply multidigit numbers by 1-digit numbers using mental math strategies and paper-and-pencil methods (e.g., expanded form, all-partials, compact). [4.OA.3; 4.NBT.7] [MP1, 6]

E8

Choose appropriately from among estimation, mental math strategies, and paper-and-pencil methods to multiply whole numbers. [4.OA.3, 4; 4.NBT.7] [MP1, 6]

Math Facts

Number 3

Computation and Estimation: Use efficient and flexible procedures to compute accurately and make reasonable estimates.

E9

Demonstrate fluency with the division facts for the 2s and 3s. [3.OA.7]

E10

Determine the unknown number in a multiplication or division sentence relating three whole nubmers for the 2s and 3s facts. [3.OA.4]

Math Practices

Math Practices Expectations. Students use the Math Practices Expectations on the Math Practices page in the Student Guide Reference section to help them focus on practices related to both problem solving and communication. Students become more comfortable with these Expectations by reviewing them before, during, and after solving a problem and by deciding how well they are met in their work and the work of others.

The Math Practices section of the Unit 7 Key Assessment Opportunities Chart identifies activities in the unit that are appropriate for assessing students' use and development of the math practices related to problem-solving habits and communication skills. In this unit, students will have an opportunity to demonstrate their progress and receive feedback on all the Math Practices Expectations during the Hour Walk Lesson. Students will use student work examples and peer reviews to improve their abilities with these practices.

MPE1 Know the problem. I read the problem carefully. I know the questions to answer and what information is important. [MP1, 6]
MPE2 Find a strategy. I choose good tools and an efficient strategy for solving the problem. [MP4, 5, 7, 8]
MPE3 Check for reasonableness. I look back at my solution to see if my answer makes sense. If it does not, I try again. [MP6]
MPE4 Check my calculations. If I make mistakes, I correct them. [MP1, 6]
MPE5 Show my work. I show or tell how I arrived at my answer so that someone else can understand my thinking. [MP3, 4, 6]
MPE6 Use labels. I use labels to show what numbers mean. [MP1, 3]
