KINDERGARTEN MATH: BOOKS ON SHELVESUNIT OVERVIEWBooks on Shelves is the culminating task in a multi-week unit focused on operations and algebraic thinking.Students demonstrate mastery by completing the Books on Shelves task in one class period.TASK DETAILSTask Name: Books on ShelvesGrade: KSubject: MathDepth of Knowledge: 2Task Description: Students are asked to demonstrate the different possible combinations whenplacing 6 books on 2 shelves.Standards Assessed:K.OA.3 Decompose numbers less than or equal to 10 into pairs in more than one way, e.g., by usingobjects or drawings, and record each decomposition by a drawing or equation (e.g., 5 2 3 and 5 4 1).Standards for Mathematical Practice:MP.1 Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.MP.2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively.MP.3 Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.MP.6 Attend to precision.1

TABLE OF CONTENTSThe task and instructional supports in the following pages are designed to help educators understandand implement tasks that are embedded in Common Core-aligned curricula. While the focus for the2011-2012 Instructional Expectations is on engaging students in Common Core-aligned culminatingtasks, it is imperative that the tasks are embedded in units of study that are also aligned to the newstandards. Rather than asking teachers to introduce a task into the semester without context, this workis intended to encourage analysis of student and teacher work to understand what alignment looks like.We have learned through the 2010-2011 Common Core pilots that beginning with rigorous assessmentsdrives significant shifts in curriculum and pedagogy. Universal Design for Learning (UDL) support isincluded to ensure multiple entry points for all learners, including students with disabilities and Englishlanguage learners.PERFORMANCE TASK: BOOKS ON SHELVES . .3UNIVERSAL DESIGN FOR LEARNING (UDL) PRINCIPLES 5RUBRIC . 7ANNOTATED STUDENT WORK 13INSTRUCTIONAL SUPPORTS .36UNIT OUTLINE 37INITIAL ASSESSMENT: GOLDFISH .41FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT: PRETTY TULIPS .43GAMES AND ACTIVITIES . 44SUPPORTS FOR ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERS . . 61SUPPORTS FOR STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES 63Acknowledgements: The unit outline was developed by Kerry Cunningham (CFN 208) with input from CurriculumDesigners Alignment Review Team.

Books on Shelves – Math Grade KCommon Core Learning Standards/Universal Design for LearningThe goal of using Common Core Learning Standards (CCLS) is to provide the highest academicstandards to all of our students. Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a set of principles thatprovides teachers with a structure to develop their instruction to meet the needs of a diversity oflearners. UDL is a research-based framework that suggests each student learns in a unique manner.A one-size-fits-all approach is not effective to meet the diverse range of learners in our schools. Bycreating options for how instruction is presented, how students express their ideas, and howteachers can engage students in their learning, instruction can be customized and adjusted to meetindividual student needs. In this manner, we can support our students to succeed in the CCLS.Below are some ideas of how this Common Core Task is aligned with the three principles of UDL;providing options in representation, action/expression, and engagement. As UDL calls for multipleoptions, the possible list is endless. Please use this as a starting point. Think about your own groupof students and assess whether these are options you can use.REPRESENTATION: The “what” of learning. How does the task present information and content indifferent ways? How do students gather facts and categorize what they see, hear, and read? Howare they identifying letters, words, or an author's style?In this task, teachers can 9 Highlight or emphasize key elements in text, graphics, and diagrams by providing access toconcrete or virtual manipulatives, such as pictures or models of book on shelves.ACTION/EXPRESSION: The “how” of learning. How does the task differentiate the ways thatstudents can express what they know? How do they plan and perform tasks? How do studentsorganize and express their ideas?In this task, teachers can 9 Provide graphic organizers and templates for data collection and organizing information tohelp students organize their thoughts and establish relationships between ideas. Graphic organizerscan be paper/pencil or found on-line.ENGAGEMENT: The “why” of learning. How does the task stimulate interest and motivation forlearning? How do students get engaged? How are they challenged, excited, or interested?In this task, teachers can 9 Provide feedback that is frequent, timely, and specific by helping students see what they did welland why, see their errors and learn how to correct them by providing explicit and informativefeedback when assessing student work, making feedback a part of the learning process.Visit /default.htm to learn more information about UDL.6

KINDERGARTEN MATH:BOOKS ON SHELVESRUBRICThe following section contains two rubrics that were used to score student work: a content rubric and aprocess rubric. The content rubric describes student performance according to the content standards inthe CCLS. The process rubric describes student performance according to the National Council ofTeachers of Mathematics (NCTM) process standards. Students’ were given a score based on theirachievement on the CCLS content rubric and the process rubric. Given that the process rubric is not inthe language of the Common Core’s Mathematical Practices, we have also included a document thatNCTM has posted regarding the relationship between the NCTM process standards and the Standardsfor Mathematical Practice.7

National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) Process Standards and theCommon Core State Standards for MathematicsFrom NCTM Action on the Common Core State Standards for Mathematicsby NCTM President J. Michael Shaughnessy“The preeminent message in both the NCTM Principles and Standards for School Mathematics(2000) and CCSSM is the importance of nurturing mathematical thinking and reasoningprocesses in our students. No bulleted list of specific content standards will hold together as acoherent, meaningful whole, or make any significant contribution to our students’ growth inmathematics, without interweaving mathematical “practices.” Mathematics curricula mustshow students the power of reasoning and sense making as they explore mathematicalstructures, of communication as they construct viable arguments, and of multiplerepresentations as they engage in mathematical modeling. The close connections between theNCTM Process Standards and the CCSSM Standards for Mathematical Practice are representedin the chart below.The upcoming NCTM publication, Making it Happen, will provide a deeper analysis of theconnections between the NCTM Process Standards and detail the potential of the existingNCTM resources to interpret and implement CCSSM.”12

The student shows five correct combinations and correctlystates, “5 ways.” The student uses an alternative strategy of a tableto support her/his answer.Reasoning and ProofExpertThe student shows correct reasoning of the underlying mathematicalconcepts of combinations to six, the commutative property, andunderstanding that 0 6 6 and 6 0 6 can not be considered aspossible combinations for the problem. The student verifies her/hissolution by solving the problem a second way.CommunicationExpertThe student correctly uses the mathematical terms-diagram, key, fairshare, equal, even number, combinations, table, pattern.ConnectionsExpertThe student makes the Practitioner mathematically relevantconnections, “This is a fair share of books for the two shelves,” “Thatmeans equal,” “Six books means even number,” “If the books can goon only one shelf you can have two more ways-zero and six, six andzero,” and, “Look the books go up by one here and books go down byone here, that is a pattern.” The student makes the Expertconnection by using a table to solve the problem a second way andlinking the two strategies together to verify that her/his solution iscorrect. The student states, I did five ways here and here. Tell Miguelit is five ways cuz I know it is.”RepresentationExpertThe student’s diagrams are appropriate to the problem and accurate.The student’s key and the scribing correctly define the books andshelves.
