Mr. Jansen's second-grade students have been working on
addition and are now ready to begin learning two-digit
subtraction. To introduce this new unit of study, he first
has students work on addition problems they are familiar
with and then follows up by demonstrating to them how
those problems are related to subtraction.Mr. Jansen has
been debating whether or not he should allow his students
to use calculators to do their math. Some of his students
are learning disabled. When considering the use of
calculators for math exercises, Mr. Jansen should keep in
mind that — - answer Once students have demonstrated
that they know the correct way to perform math
calculations, they should be allowed to use a calculator.
The 1st grade students, including ELL students, at Rice
Elementary will be assessed over their understanding of
U.S. coins and the value of each coin. During class
instruction, all students were able to concretely work with
play money to make connections with coins and values.
The teacher must determine the best way to assess
students over the values of the U.S. coins. Which would be
an appropriate method to do so? - answer Provide pictures
of each U.S. coin and have students match the picture
with the value of the coin.
In preparing students to be successful in problem solving
with word problems and given tasks, the TEKS state five
parts which should be included in a problem solving
model. These parts are best implemented in conjunction
,with one another but may stand alone as each part is
taught and introduced. Four of these parts are: analyzing
given info, determining a solution, justifying the solution
and evaluating the problem-solving process and the
reasonableness of the solution. Which of the following
would be the fifth part of this process model? - answer
formulating a plan or strategy
The use of manipulatives and technological tools within

Ms. Senath teaches math to a diverse group of students in
her fourth-grade class, some of them with learning
disabilities. It is important for her to remember when
presenting math instruction to her students that — -
,answer She should teach math concepts from the concrete
to the representational to the abstract.
During math work stations, the students are to use the
Math Talks poster to guide their thinking in solving the
given problems. As the teacher walks around the room
helping different students, the teacher hears Johnny ask
Joe how he solved the problem of five times nine. Which
response from Joe may have appeared on the Math Talks
poster as a way to explain his thinking? - answer B.I
multiplied five times nine by counting by fives nine times.
Mrs. Jones is planning learning goals for her kindergarten
students as she begins a series of lessons on patterns.
Mrs. Jones will present her class with opportunities to
learn about patterns in a variety of ways. She will create
and use representations to organize, record and
communicate the mathematical ideas behind patterns.
Following the series of lessons, Mrs. Jones will assess her
class on the skills and knowledge that have been taught.
When developing the learning goals, it would be wise for
Mrs. Jones to include which of the following? - answer
reevaluation of instruction
Which basic operation(s) has commutativity? - answer
addition
Which of the following would not be an important
indicator towards learning place value within the Base Ten
number system? - answer adding by ones
, Which choice represents an element whose only factors
are itself and 1? - answer prime numbers
Mr. Jacobs' fifth graders will work in small groups to solve
addition and subtraction of fractions with like and unlike
denominators. When solving addition and subtraction of
fractions with unlike denominators what will be important
for students to remember and apply? - answer Students
will need to make equivalent fractions using LCD prior to
solving problems with unlike denominators.
First graders are applying skip counting as they count to
100. The teacher wants to explore common items for the
students to use with skip counting. For skip counting by
5s, the teacher will have the students trace their hands
and number their fingers then glue the hands on a large
poster board to display the number of hands with five
fingers it would take to reach 100. What are some things
the teacher could use to teach skip counting by 2s? -
answer socks, shoes, feet
Three times the width of a rectangle plus five is the same
as seven more than four times the width. If W is used to
represent the width of the rectangle, which of the
following expresses this relationship? - answer 3w + 5 =
4w+ 7
Students learning to solve for missing values through
input/output tables which increase the output (or y value)
by the same value are laying a foundation to be able to
work with which kind of function as they mature in their
mathematical knowledge? - answer linear functions
