Original PromptCreate a 5 page worksheet where students are analyzing a constructed response question based on standard 5.NBT.B.7.
5.NBT.B.7: Adds or subtracts two decimals to hundredths using concrete models, drawings, or strategies based on place value, properties of operations and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction. Also include decimal multiplication. On each page, students should be given 1 constructed response prompt and 2-3 examples of possible student responses that they can analyze
This review guide focuses on decimal addition, providing students with an opportunity to analyze different student responses to the problem of adding decimals to hundredths. It includes examples of three students' work: one strong response demonstrating the correct technique, one response with a misconception regarding decimal alignment, and one partial response that contains errors in computation. The guide encourages students to identify the misconception, explain why the incorrect method is flawed, and reinforces the importance of proper decimal alignment through a visual place value chart. This is aimed at enhancing understanding and mastery of decimal addition through analysis and justification of strategies.
